Well that and food. Might need food to survive.
Theres food in the forest, I'll need a oversized soaking tub.
You gotta pick a fuckton of berries and hunt a lot of squirrels unless you have both the acres and knowledge to actually farm and homestead.
Fishing if you are near the sea is an option too. Stick a few pots out in the morning, go check them in the afternoon for your dinner. Even with string I have managed to catch some big spider crabs in just a few minutes. A pot should get you loads. Seaweed for some veg on the side.
If the waters here were not so polluted I could be eating crab/lobster every day!
Depending on where you are long pork is an option, people go missing in national parks all the time what's a few more?
While I was going to make a point about diseases being transmittable through human meat, it did remind me that CWD, or Zombie Deer Disease is raging across now a third of the US or so, and a huge swath of Canada as well. It's a prion disease, not a virus or bacteria, there is no cure or antidote, cannot be cooked out and can even survive autoclaves, and it's 100% fatal over time, and we have no real good idea how it's spreading or how readily it can be transmitted to humans. (There have already been some infections.)
If you do ever end up in the woods, do not eat the deer unless you're starving and even then, avoid lymph nodes, brains and organ meat generally. Even still they think it can be spread from blood.

I'd spear hunt the boar I don't like deer.
