I used Kratom for many years...also for neuropathy and depression/anxiety. I started w 2-4grams a day then over time went up to 40-50 grams...I had a hypongic hallucination and stopped cold turkey...did have withdrawals for a few days but if you take the normal dose, there is no threat of...

Great thread...one that speaks to me.  I came into this forum after my mother died and shared my story.  I would hope nobody experience what I did and still do.  The loss of a parent is hard enough, then to be rejected by your father and sister.  I went blank inside.  I made the huge mistake of...

"I'm putting $3000+- into my solar/battery setup and the plan is to be able to run AC in the evenings for a couple hours" WOW...ok...i need to make every effort to tap the power on site!!! Solar is out for now if the cost factor is that high. i will pass this to my buddy who thinks a few...

Thank You...from what i am hearing, batteries not the best option. I was thinking that a solar system charges batteries that are used to power appliances, so instead of a solar system, I would charge with electricity.  BUT...air con and hot plate draw a lot of power. I need A/C in the...

Hello... I have an opportunity to boondock on a friend's property.  If he does not provide a electrical opportunity I go either solar or find some way to charge batteries.  I do not need much power and have not crunched numbers. RV w/LCD lighting, small A/C, hot plate, small fridge. It is in...

Thanks...I have a car and am wasting money in a motel, but can drop $10k on something. I have done a lot of work on how to develop a solar system and go as off-grid as possible, it is a matter of what to buy and then, where to go. I mentioned a BLM route and have tracked living in RV folks...

Ever try to please others only to realize you get the shaft in the end? Part of life's learning curve?  Leave a job to care for a parent then family member takes over and your out of house wondering what happened?   * Friendships are tested and more disappointment. * Church message is: Come to...

"you are aware the pass is for Angeles, Cleveland, Los Padres and San Bernardino National Forests?"" I am now...thanks! Also, didn't think of a fire permit for using a small butane burner to cook with. Silly question maybe...but do you all make a fire at night during the summer...allowed? Not...

...SORRY, Edit button disappeared on previous post... I guess you only get so much time after you make a post???

Worry is a misuse of imagination! I hated reading your quote...at first, but it got stuck in me... I mulled it over and over for a week...I hated it because it was ME...and I want to be free of it...that quote inspired me to seek this thread! Thanks...

Hi Roadsters! Figured this the best place to seek some advise about hitting the road. Short story: Lost mother which was hard enough, but the family "shit storm" after brutal...zero support...lots of shame issues, etc... I have tried to deal with this, but need to clear my head.  I seek...

Renogy seems the best choice...well respected and tons of videos on their use! I'd rather drop an extra $40 for quality and performance unless a weekend warrior 3x a year...then go for cheap.

I have been searching and the Ozark tents at Walmart are very reasonably priced...even instant set up styles. If I was going short-term or deciding on this lifestyle, I would go cheap before dropping $400 on a tent (there is always other stuff needed) over $119 for an 11-man cabin style or the...

This seems like a good hack, especially to the Coleman cooler which gets great reviews!  I would add, digging a hole the size of the cooler in the shade (if possible for longer stays) with a simple cover for added duration (have not tried, but want to and calculate duration) He does a test...

This guy has one of the most ergonomic conversions I ever saw; Bug Out Chevy Express 3500 I don't need room for a motorcycle, but after watching his videos, I really like the idea.  Go for the bike at this point with my dog! What I like about starting from scratch is building to my needs and...

looked into it...here in So Cal it is a HASSLE.  Cannot get someone to tell me what PO420 really means. 1. CAT Efficiency below threshold (bank 1) One guy says I need to replace all O2 sensors and CAT totally over $800 will no guarantee light will go off. Another says CAT...yet when I ask what...

Back in the van saddle as of late.  Life not working in So Cal...spending money on motels and my living situation has become unbearable.  I have looked into renting cabins in the Frazier Park or Big Bear area to get out of the city but that getting locked in a one year lease and the unknown...

Good thread...rare vulnerability...like sitting in an "anonymous" group share.   I will offer a blog I put together as I worked and am working through a lot of my issues... 'eat the melon, spit out the seeds' Heal Inner Shame I have come to believe so many external projections are simply a way...

SO, did you get a dog? Can't start this thread and just disappear...

Buy that man a cold one!
