    Cooking shouldn’t take much effort or be mentally straining. And unless you are going to be making money instead of cooking than you shouldn’t be giving it a cash value. $8 is a lot when when you need money.

    You could get at least a full day of food out of $8 if you shop right.

      Most things that “shouldn’t take much effort or be mentally straining” still are for me and I’m sure I’m not alone.

      I deal with it rather than ordering but regardless.

        Yup. I’m ADHD and work a rather demanding full time job. My partner is disabled and AuDHD. We both struggle with task management and avoidance sometimes. But sometimes you just gotta throw a pack of ramen into boiling water and eat something.

          Ramen is a life (and money) saver in times of need. Nothing wrong with that. Keep fighting the good fight in your own way. You are (both) valid.
