Are any of you running your home directory off of another SSD, rather than the one that Mac OS is installed on?
Not sure if anyone brought this up, as I briefly read through the threads. Anyway, I was having freezing issues as well and thought it was an Adobe CC update issue, because it was mainly happening while opening up Photoshop/Illustrator. My freeze issue also started when Adobe released the 2018 updates. I would have to do a hard press reboot to get it back up again and force quit Photoshop before it opened up. I would have to do a proper shutdown in order for it to run normally.
After trying everything from upgrading to Sierra/High Sierra from El Capitan, turning off graphics acceleration, to buying a new GPU and ultimately upgrading my entire build from Ivy Bridge to Coffee Lake, it came down to my home directory being on a separate SSD/HDD/NVMe. I'm currently running the OS on a NVMe and moved my home directory back to said NVMe and all is perfect. I haven't had a freeze since doing so (knocks on wood).
Worth a shot!
