No. I look forward to when the cute cashier brushes the tips of my fingers while giving me my change, affecting a smile the whole time. It's the only thing that makes me feel good. Even the alcohol is just a way to dull my senses and drift into sleep more smoothly.

>normal weight
Normal human, or normal american?
Also, you look forward to the whole food thing, like cooking, all the culture and drama about it? Or do you simply look to stuff you mouth with something carby and fatty?
If first, it's a nice hobby, but may be you need to try some new things and seek a new direction. Try finding something that interests you.
If second, then, shit, you have depression. Get that shit looked at, or it will seriously make you life miserable and you may end up offing yourself, and after that there's no more food for you. Only eternal torture of the soul in the fiery depths of hell.

Anonymous Sat May 23 08:05:28 2020 No.14135917

no, I hate having to find ways to feed me. If I could I would just eat a pill each day that provides all I need. I thought learning to cook might help me. There are a few nice surprises every now and then but it's still effort. Sometimes I think about switching to a raw whole foods diet just so I can cut out prep time completely

>>	Anonymous Sat May 23 08:06:32 2020 No.14135921 I look forward to my morning bowl of microwaved oats every night. Nothing compares.

One of my close friends is like this. But he's obsessed with staying in shape. So food is like this huge forbidden pleasure to him that he rarely gets to enjoy, whereas I just don't fuckin' think about it. I can happily go days without eating.

Unfortunately not the same for alcohol. If I'm not drinking, I'm thinking about drinking.

That sounds like anhedonia, Anonymous.
The inability to enjoy things you previously found enjoyable.
You may be looking for food as a coping mechanism.

What's stressing you out, my friend?

Oh, well, I work in finance <4
I can help you with that at least!
We're not in an economic collapse <4
Don't you feel better now?

Alright, obviously, I'd need to explain this in detail, but we can look towards other events to see what can be done, what is being done, and why what we're doing is working: the flu of 1918 and the Great Depression.

The flu of 1918 was very similar to this one; it had a high mortality rate, it was easily spread, and we did social distancing in order to stop the climb, flatten curves, etc. The difference, of course, is that modern medicine was literally 100 years behind where it is now, and that the flu of 1918 had no asymptomatic period.
We were able to lock down movement, and while a second wave was much more deadly than the first, with adequate lock downs we were able to overcome it.
Did the lockdown harm the economics? Only temporarily: we had a U shaped curve sort of recovery, and it would have been a LOT worse without the lockdowns: the economy cannot recover with dramatically reduced labor after all!
The flu of 1918 lead to the roaring 20's.
So while there will be a lot of hard ship and things to get through, we CAN get through it.

So, our economy is showing signs we're heading towards a recession or maybe even a depression. Notably, unemployment is up.

Now, obviously, it's bad to have unemployment as bad as The Great Depression, and a lot of problems will inevitably occur from it.
I'm not saying there will not be hard times.

But we have a LOT more economic levers to pull this time: the Great Depression was substantially increased by austerity mechanisms and a lack of ability to influence or ramp up business.
We're not really facing that now: a lot of businesses will fail, but we're not seeing across the board decreases in capacity like we did in the Great Depression, and we're seeing active market interventions that should smooth out the harm caused by it.
Yes, our debt is now much higher, but we're more than able to pay off the principle, and we're in a situation VERY similar to post WWII, where EVERYONE is kind of messed up so debt interest payments are not really a concern.

tl;dr:
We've gotten through this before
We know how to get through this
We know how to prevent the worst cases
We're not approaching the worst cases
And our worst worst case (The Great Depression) occured because we weren't doing what we're doing now.

So sit tight. Try not to go stir crazy. We're in this together.
Okay?
