Cancel your gym membership? You've been holding out on us that you can perform miracles. Maybe it is different in the UK but in Japan you don't just "cancel" your gym membership. Basically you need to hack off a finger to successfully end a gym contract. Even then you must do so a month before you actually will have your membership terminated.
I'm being facetious obviously but one of the reasons I hesitated to join my local gym was because of the bureaucratic cartwheeling necessary to quit a gym. Some years ago I was moving away from a town (where I am now back) and needed to end my membership (at a different place than I ended up joining recently) and was flatly told that it was impossible to do so. The desk girl, with whom up until that moment I had had a cordial relationship, suddenly turned flat and went extremely cool. Ultimately I did quit but they were not at all happy about it, and I think I would not be welcome there if I tried to re-up. They had a pool, too, it's too bad.
I feel like the vagueness of your pronouncements here ("social catastrophe, "we" cannot be "ourselves", lack of imagining a counterfactual to some of the historical gestures you're making) weakens this to the point that it's hard to reply.
