Although the apocalypse might seem like a lot of fun- no boring nine-to-five, no cash economy, camping out, getting to shoot stuff- it would get really old really fast (no movies, no internet, no restaurants, constantly trying to avoid the crazies, etc.). I'm not sure that preppers realize this.

Boring and depressing to the extent that there would probably be a very significant spike in suicides, even among people who were having their caloric needs met. Going from comfortable living and ample leisure activities in the developed world to the stress of living precariously as a reinvented medieval peasant or hunter-gatherer or whatever is just going to be too much for some people to deal with.
