This would likely be my reaction. I would not want to try and survive in the aftermath of a nuclear war. It would be SO MUCH WORSE than movies would have you believe.

Uh have you seen 'Threads'?

That movie is NOT fucking around

Parts of it, yeah. Ugh. In America, we got the much-watered-down (even optimistic, by comparison) The Day After.

I also read a fallout shelter manual from the 50s. The limited steps they could recommend just served to underline how fucked you were. The sentence “don’t wait for help” spoke volumes.
