Been struggling to eat this week. I just don't see the point. I'm not hungry and I don't feel like it so why bother. My world's shrunk from my apartment to the couch. Merry christmas.

An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

Same. Laid on the couch for four days straight and drank to forget the holiday. Merry Christmas.
I’m sorry. I hope things get a bit better for you. I’m also struggling this holiday.
I had Xmas cookies and chocolate for breakfast.
Same! Also Pez.
I have a syndrome that my wife and I refer to as "vacation tummy". Basically, on a long vacation break (started last Thursday) we eat and drink to excess. After a bit of that we end up with a case of the "rumbly tummy" and despite our planned feasts we are not hungry and actually can not eat anymore (despite our continuous gorging).
I try to fight it with fiber caplets and hydration.
I suspect that my sedentary over-fed drinky-ness causes engorged liver thing to cause distress...I deserve gout along with it because I am a vacation slug.
I had to use Tums for the first time this morning. Apparently I have aged to the point that four beers, then four sugary treats immediately before going to bed, is not appreciated by my gastric system.
I ate one meal today and a lot of dessert.
Relatives canceled so was only the kids and I - so much food not eaten. I told my kids were doing charcuteries for lunch and leftovers for dinner but one just made himself a peanut butter sandwich and the other some instant ramen. We have so much to eat.
I have over 5 pounds of leftover ham but no horseradish. I suppose I have some good mustard but how can I eat ham without horseradish?
My father says "Hey let's go out to a steak house at 6 pm on the Saturday between Christmas and New Year's."
So I haven't eaten supper tonight either.
