fun fact, if you go 36 hours without eating, sometimes the hunger pangs just ... stop
Yeah well duh, everyone's experienced that, right?
Right?
...
i mean
if you've had a depressive episode last long enough that you went to bed because you're just so tired even though sleep won't fix it and then you just lie there drifting in and out until you find enough willpower to check what time it is and it's actually mid-evening next day yeah
or if you've been busy and so distracted all day that you forgot to eat and then were so tired by the time you could finally sleep that you wake up and realize the last time you ate was lunch the day before yesterday
these things DO happen to some people, but not necessarily everyone. maybe not you, but certainly to people you've known.
I've had both of those things happen to me, (Depression and Anxiety is a powerful combination) I was trying to make a joke about thinking that everyone experiences it but then realizing that most people don't experience it
i'm sorry that i misinterpreted your reply and want to assure you that you definitely aren't alone D:
that's fine
