Hi there people, not sure really what to write, but has anybody ever thought of disappearing from society completely, I'd be interested to hear other people thoughts on this idea...

Hi @drewkmac71

Welcome to the forums and thanks for sharing.

I think it's quite normal to feel like withdrawing from society, especially when there are so many issues in the world. Personally, I've never felt like withdrawing forever, but it's definitely made sense at times.

Yeah thanks for your reply, I've made a conscious decision to live in the wilderness permanently and have spent a considerable amount of money to make this happen, I'm aware it may result in my death but i have this thought that I'm going to live the last of my years in peace and escape this existence I've been living, 79 days to go...It might sound a bit crazy to most, but it's my decision and don't think I'll be missing much in society to be honest...

Re: Lost

It’s an interesting proposition, although how long before one would need social engagement again?

How many people in your life would miss you? (You would be surprised)
