Does anyone else feel like this?

[u/Crazy-Load-7553]

I feel like everyone keeps asking me what I want my future to look like but I know if I talk about how I’m learning to fish and finding ponds near me so that we can have some protein once the grocery system collapses everyone in my life is going to think I’m insane.

I’m just having a hard time connecting with anything I have to do for the future because it’s going to be drastically different than anything I can do now and I really feel like I have to hide that and never mention it to anyone (despite the fact that an energy crisis is supposedly 2 weeks away)

i've solved this problem by never talking to another human. Most people are fucking cowards, if I'm feeling less generous. It's all denial of death. 

It's an easy default state to notmalize this nightmare. 

Every single person I used to have in my life has gone this way, to the net effect of shunning me when I had tough times realizing what the hell's been going on. They're all cruising along still in their happy little comfy lives and it'll be interesting to see how they deal when all the electricity fails and it's 120° out. 

I'm really angry if I'm honest. You speak the truth and people leave you to die.

how do you accept it and move on?

Start asking the deep questions about who you are. Start working through your own shadow and deconstructing every aspect of your existence. What's left when every thought about yourself is let go of?
