When I'm feeling too happy, I wonder how long it would be before someone found me dead. I live alone and work remotely, so my boss and coworkers might be confused or annoyed if I didn't login to work for days, but probably wouldn't call the police or anyone for a while. I have group chats with friends and call family, but not really on a regular schedule, so not responding for 3-4 days wouldn't be weird. I just hope my cat would find food or eat my corpse to survive.
I feel you, I have trouble finding the motivation to keep up with friends and family at times. I can go a week or two without texting or responding to texts. If it weren't for my partner I'd probably be in the same boat
The guess I have for myself would be 1-2 months. I have very few obligations, my work would probably call and email that I'm laid off, my family doesn't tend to hear from me except a couple times a year and it's not uncommon for me to go weeks or a month+ without interacting with my friends.
I live alone, no pets, so I'd probably start stinking before the apartment complex comes in to figure it out
