Title: I have been living in the wilderness, alone, for six months now. AMA.
Post by: TovinoThomas on October 18, 2019, 04:09:47 pm
I've been suffering depression my entire life, and about three years ago I decided I couldn't handle everyday life anymore. For years I learned everything I'd need. I honed my skills in archery, bushcraft, mapping, building etc. I live my life hunting for food, improving my shelter and reading.

Every month or so I take a trek up to the town near me to buy medicine, books, food I can't get myself etc. I'll be staying here for three days before going back, I figured I could answer some questions. I have no proof, and I will not answer any questions about my whereabouts.https://discord.software/ (https://discord.software/) FetLife (https://fetlife.vip/online/) vshare (https://vshare.onl/)

Wow, if there was some address to send you a care package of books, Advil, & basic items like toothpaste, etc., ... I'd be most pleased to send a box of goodies your way. Is there some kind soul in town who would accept & hold packages for you?

Stay healthy & I sure wish you the best!

I am always really curious about shelters, so what kind of shelter or shelters have you used so far, what has worked the best so far.

Hope it is working for you!  Even the mountain men came down for the  winter, though!

Just a question. If you've been living primitive for 6 months, in the wild, how do you have an Xbox?

Off grid is possible - total primitive, I don't know!  As I said, even he mountain men came down to winter at least to a friendly tribe or to Taos!  Good luck!  We alteeady see you are more off grid than total primitive.  Again, Good luck!
