  • The only experience I had was Hello Fresh back during lockdowns. I also found myself taking longer to cook the dishes than they quoted. Hopefully someone else has more experience and can add some suggestions, but while looking around I saw that there are some services that are more ‘open and heat up’ than cooking. Maybe that could work for the busiest days of the week?

    You also might have already come across this, but I browsed this article on pc mag to see what’s out there now.


  • Lists are my friend. My partner and I both go through depressive episodes and are supportive when that happens. Last year I made a couple lists: things that have to happen once a year, seasonally, monthly, weekly. On top of that, lists for when I’m feeling good and when a depressive episode happens.

    It’s basically a “what can fall to the wayside?” list.

    So, when I struggle to get up and do anything, I force myself to get up each day for a couple things: I must brush my teeth in the morning and at night at least, I must do one thing that used to bring me joy (could be a puzzle, revisit a tv show, etc), and I must do one small chore (put some dishes away, wipe the bathroom sink, check the mail).

    It’s all just stuff to try and fight without losing even more energy.

    Everyone is different though. I hope you find what works best for you.


  • Loved my 3ds. It helped me get back into gaming regularly. I had weird guilt when I tried to sit down at a console or pc to play, thinking I should use my time more wisely, but was able to spend hours on Animal Crossing and then other games.

    I got introduced to the Fire Emblem series through it and loved them. Although I never finished Shadows of Valencia. One day, I’ll get back to it.

    I also learned that Resident Evil, while awesome, is not for me to play lol.
