How would you and the people you know cope if the country
you live in ended up under martial law, or because of climate change super storms crippled the economy so that it was the end of life as we know it or other disasters? How would social anxiety and people with other mental health issues survive, as well as healthy people? Big question, but I would like to know your thoughts.

I’d probably recruit some family to get us to a new place. Stop along the way to get supplies and equipment. Then head somewhere hospitable and defendable to start a farm and live off of the land.
I know I learned how to garden just thinking of victory gardens in world war two.
I mean after learning about them.

The tough survive in a situation where only the tough have the ability to survive.. that will answer the question for the ill and mentally challanged. But, if my country had entered martial law, i would join the rebals to fix the problem and learn the lessons of life real fast to do everything i could to make the next generations future secure and safe. but thats just me
I would not be a natural for using firearms, would you?
I mean I never have.
When it is a matter of survival you learn quickly or you die.
true.
ive only fired a rifle once and a hand gun once, but i can say after 4 or 5 lessons of a fire arm im sure id be a lot better at it
being that i have struggled through life thus far… i know that even though i am labeled as clinically depressed, i still could make it.. i have found that when things bother me, i get upset, i may even cry… but eventually i will pick fun at it and make jokes about what is really going on just so that it doesnt get me down.
I know, survival skills we have always used would help us out if we were in that position.
Like intuition and observation.
i think that also.. if this WERE to happen.. you would find in the beginning, a lot of theft and stuff… but eventually, it would slow down and everyone would be working together to make life happen..
I would love that.
yeah, too bad people didnt get along like that with out having a disaster happen..
yeah.
well.. im heading off for the night…. its now 2 am… rog and i are going to watch a movie.. ill be back later..
nighty night.
Good night! Have a good movie.
I think the majority of my family would acclimate well. we can all farm, and handle a gun. as for those people who are completely dependent on the immediate availabilty of a rocery store, i guess they would just be SOL, huh? It would be a terrible thing to see all the people that have no idea how to entirley care hor themselves if it were necessary.
