I believe this post depends on whose perspective we're looking at this from. In the viewpoint of the father, the son, or just some other person who has just experienced this apocalypse too.
I'll take it on from the view of some random person who has survived. I feel like many people, if not all, have thought about the difficulty of suicide would be if they were stuck in this situation. Perhaps I would end up living that lifestyle for a week, if even that, and decide that this was too overwhelming and painful to handle and I would end up suicidal and kill myself. But maybe even in this situation I'd rather die more "naturally" than have the guts to take my own life. I'd probably try to live though this day by day and figure out where to get food, of course. Are there others out there to help keep my sanity? Then again...the people seem to BE the ones you have to protect yourself from.
I really want to add more but I'm currently eating and it's distracting.
