@vortex_egg @erosdiscordia I think in some ways, it's normal, but only if you have an incredible social support structure.
I have friends that come over and clean my kitchen when I'm sad because they know it will make me feel better. Sometimes, I'll paint something for them, but it's not really ever something we track.
I went most of my life not having friends like that, and damn, it's incredible how much of a difference it makes. But it's also not something everyone can just do for each other in every situation. It's really rad, though.
