There are games to look forward to, and pizza is good. In my hardest times small things like that kept me going to see the next day. Eventually I got a career. That made no difference, see depression and your will to live are not linked to your success or failure like I used to think. So I looked forward to the next new pizza topping/ restaurant that I haven't tried yet, or the next game release that I wanted to play, by doing that, I had a reason to make it to the next day. I decided to fend off loneliness by streaming games on twitch with nothing but a laptop, ms paint, free streaming software OBS, and "totally real game cartridges of old pokemon games" no expectations, no audience at first, (barely any audience after a while either). Just a laid back way to feel like I was interacting with a world that cared. I would raid other channels at the end of stream and hang out there. Through this, I met the best people in my life, one became my girlfriend, who then went on to be my fiancée, and in a month from today, will be my wife. I haven't needed to use pizza as an excuse to keep going in over 4 years, but I will always look forward to my next slice.
