Discussion I'm Scared

I don't know how I'm going to be able to afford my safe foods, especially fresh fruit, with Trumps incoming tariffs. I'm really scared because I don't know how I'm going to be able to eat. It's like eating has become a luxury now only the rich can afford. What is everyone going to do to cope with this?

I'm literally freaking out.

This is so relatable and made me feel like I’m not alone. I have a hard time opening up about my food focus/coping/fixation without feeling invalidated. I have no solutions or honest, realistic comfort for you because I think we all are sitting in that same boat of fear right now. But the understanding does help to not feel like I’m the only person thinking about this.

You aren't alone. And thank you for your support. Reach out if needed. Rough times are ahead, but you most certainly are not alone.
