Without a query it’s hard to help you on this... Often, I tell people to start with a match of what you know exists, and then do an optional match for what you’re not sure exists, like:
match (p:Person) // we want to get all Person nodes optional match (p)-[:FOLLOWS]->(maybe:Person) return p.name, maybe.name This way, you give the engine some help with the starting point. Does this help?
