5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

Beeing outside in the dark. Not in the streetlamp dark but the forest dark. If you can't see anything then nothing can see you. It's like a blanket that covers everyones eyes.
People sure, but all the critters out there can see you juuuust fine.
Most of them don't want anything to do with you though, so that's ok.
But some of them... some of them are hungry...
Predators can see in the dark much better than you do and not only that; their sense of hearing and especially smell is orders of magnitude better than yours.
As someone who has spent several nights alone in a pitch dark forest, shit's scary. You hear sounds around you all the time and you have no idea wether it's a bird, human or a bear.
One of the most peaceful experiences you can have.
