They are extremely good and I hope I get a custom bat shaped bravery medal

if you got that id be pissed....lol. jk. but im still waitin for that story...

I'm really sorry to keep you guys waiting...I'm on a new med that pretty much has me paralyzed and my joints are very stiff and it took me 3 minutes to write to this point.
I'm waiting to go to the doctor again so he will give me antidotes for my side effects.
once again I apologize for making you wait...it'll be a long story
I love all you guys and gals here.

Now mind you. This story is 100% THE TRUTH. I am not one for making things up, and I have not the greatest imagination.
I swear this

I guess I can start the story now.
I'll do it in parts



Part 1
I decided to "get in touch with god" again, like I used to so I broke up with my gf and left.
I lived in my car for a grand total of 2.5 weeks.
I left with $2.97 in my pocket, a guitar and 3 picks.
I first went to the bank and took out 5 dollars as this was all I had left.
I left at approx. 330 am. I bought a big bag of cereal thinking it could potentially feed me until I got paid 4 days later. wrong.
I ate it all in 2 days.
I drank an entire bottle of vault (the big bottles) and I found a 5 hour energy and a half of one in my car door and drank them all. one hour later, I was attempting to sleep (at 5 in the morning with the sun rising), and I feltsharp pains in my stomach and intenstines and soon realized I had too much caffeine too quick. before I knew it I had crawled out of my car and threw up for a half hour and I had blood vomit. I have no idea why it was bloody but it hurt. a lot. It would not stop coming and before I knew it I had passed out and woke up in a huge puddle of vomit and blood. when I woke up some random stranger was prodding me and handed me water to drink. I asked their name and when I opened my eyes, no one was there.

part 2
I climbed in my car and drove to home depot hoping for more privacy to sleep. I did sleep. but only for a few hours. so I decided to go find something to do, so I headed to a large local forest and river walking thing. I walked to the very end, and started at 1130ish in the morning. in all I walked the path 5 miles inward into the pure FOREST.
now I've heard stories about people living out in the forest, or ghosts or some crazy shit, so I decided to leave around 5. I smoked and sat at the furthest point possible. I laid down on the huge log I had been sitting on and accidentally fell asleep. I awoke around what I would now guess to be 930-10. night was approaching. I had 20-35 minutes to RUN AS FAST AS I COULD 5 miles, some on a path some through pure forest. I ran. I ran I ran. I raq too. lol I hope you get it. anyway the light vanished when I was running through the path free part. I tried to find the path, but to no success.

part 3.
I was getting extremely scared. all forest for miles. no compass. no cell phone. just a pack and a half of cigarettes and a lighter. OF COURSE! (I realized) a lighter! I tried to make a torch out of my shirt and a stick, but the shirt was burnt in less than a half hour. at this point I was crying it was getting scary. I now believe that something SOMETHING lives there. As I ran with nothing but faint moonlight to see, I tripped and just lay there, crying and scared. I decided I needed to do something so I started a fire which took me close to 2 hours to do, what with green wood (meaning fresh damp wood).
I finally just curled up and tried to sleep. however, I heard a loud laugh not too far away from me. in the forest. and it was no laugh like at a joke. it was one of those sinister, creepy laughs.
after much focusing on where the laugh came from, I fell asleep, but it was a restless sleep constantly waking and stirring the fire. when I woke up, I found a small rag next to me. like a old shirt. I picked it up and some kind of animal jerky fell out. whoever was watching me was giving me food. I thought it might be poisoned but realized it was worth it to eat it and get something in me, regardless of poison.
it was not poisoned. so I set out again searching for the path. I did not find it all day and night came again

Part 4
night fell again and I ate the last of the jerky and fell asleep by another fire.
I was sleeping fine when I heard something rustling behind me. I looked and sure as shit: a bear cub.
now the fire was just smoldering ashes at this point but the moon was bright enough for me to see that it was scrounging for food. I know that if you are even BETWEEN a cub and its mother, you will almost 100% be dead in moments. I just got up and I looked past the cub and there, 40 yards or so away, was the mama and another cub. I ran. imediatly.
I could hear it catching up to me slowly but fast enough to eventually get me.
BOOM BOOM BOOM. Gunshots. I just tucked and rolled away and laid low in a pile of long fallen leaves. I dared to peek up and there was 2 guys running up to the mama bear. they were, they HAD to be them, the ones who gave me the jerky. I continued to lay low and stay out of sight. moments later they had sliced off some meat from it and started to put it in some sort of bags they were carrying.
I heard a rustle and thud right near me. I reached up and grabbed around and pulled a small, bloody rag from the leaves. It was raw meat and some raspberries. I looked and the men and half the carcass was gone.
I made another fire, as the sun was starting to brighten the sky, and cooked some of the meat as best I could and ate it still bloodyish.
Today, I would find the path at last.
I will tell more tomorrow

i spent a couple nights in a forest once but it wasn't nearly as exciting as your story
