Book excerpt: In times of crisis, a well-equipped Bug-Out-Bag could easily make the difference between life and death. But in a truly serious bug-out situation, even hardened survivalists, preppers and outdoorsmen will tell you that the greatest challenge--at least in the first 48 hours--is overcoming the fear and trepidation associated with your situation. Facing your first physical challenge--whatever shape or form that may take--is not as important as a complete and honest acceptance of your circumstances. Armed with the correct frame of mind, you can conquer almost anything. Denial, on the other hand, is used as a defense mechanism to block out painful or overwhelming circumstances. Getting yourself locked into a state of denial could kill you as surely as exposure, starvation or extreme dehydration. If you're not in possession of any specific survival skills, imagine how easy it would be to succumb to the psychological pressures associated with your newfound circumstances. Depending on your immediate needs, what ought to be your first priority? Shelter? Food? Water? Self-defense? Most people who find themselves in an unexpected bug-out situation will automatically fall into a state of shock and denial. Like a deer in the headlights, the mental anguish associated with your new reality could cause you to 'freeze' with indecision or panic. That's why a good Bug-Out-Bag is essential. Surviving the first few days of your new and unexpected ordeal is an important accomplishment: it'll calm your initial apprehension, buoy your spirits and provide you with the fortitude to tackle the next set of challenges. If you're equipped with a decent bug-out-bag you won't have to burden your already challenged mental faculties with the added pressure of having to source your basic survival needs. The suggestions and recommendations in this book may help alleviate some of the anguish associated with being forced to transition from comfort to cave.
