>>2957873I built it in the summer and it was very well camouflaged. Then the winter came and I realized that the heat inside would melt the snow on top and create an imprint - not to mention all the footprints from my coming and going. Eventually somebody must have noticed and called the police, because they showed up one day and evicted me. It's a shame... it was a nice home, and I spent ~$200 on lumber and tarps and furnishing and stuff for it. All lost.
>>2957878I have bouts of depression occasionally. During these times I slip into a very negative mindset and I think about how I'll never be able to have kids or get a job or have a normal life, but in the end that's just the depression talking. I get over it eventually. I also feel very bitter towards society sometimes, usually after some kind of persecution like police harassment or something. But again, I get over it eventually.
>>2957898From what I've found, there aren't a lot of good books written on the subject. Field guides describing traps, edible plants, etc are good, but for the most part you'd be better off piecing together information from various sites on the web.
>>2957952I've had groups of drunken guys or rowdy teenagers attack me at night a few times. I guess they think that it's good sport to bother a poor homeless guy while he's trying to sleep. Like I mentioned above, I have some experience as a boxer, so I'm able to properly defend myself... it's just a pain in the ass. That's why I try to find somewhere concealed to sleep if I can.
>>2957975Trust me, either way the addicts need your money more than I do. I'd rather spend a week without food than spend a week jonesing.
