How I Deal With Scarcity
Imagine we're back in the year 2020, a few days before the government orders a shutdown, everything in the stores are stocked up nice and high ready to be grabbed by a needy customer. Now imagine that we're still in the same year but it's issued to take what is truly needed. In a state of fear, people start doing the opposite and take an unnatural amount of items.
You, wishing to avoid being trampled by a bunch of people, enter the store close to last to only realize that there's a lack of basic needs as they took it all. There's a scarce amount.
Scarcity is everywhere and it can happen at almost every time in someone's life if it hasn't already. Scarcity is the state of being scarce or in a short supply; shortage and it's a very stressful thing to go through but with the right, careful steps you can remain grounded through the unlucky event.
The way I deal with is to take a deep breath and try not to go into instant panic mode as that only worsens a situation I can not currently fix. That is followed soon after with rationing - or using much less of the objects I have to prevent overusing which easily falls down the path to not having it all together and that's not good when the supply is getting smaller and smaller each minute.
