Solo TINY TENT Camping in Rain
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 сер 2024
- A last minute solo camp in tiny "Coffin Tent" the Rab Ridge Raider in what I thought would be dry conditions both days. I camped at Hare's Castle, a rocky outcrop in The Mourne Mountains with an amazing view of the surrounding landscape.

So my doctor thinks he knows what the problem is... ua-cam.com/video/zAqxsMajUBw/v-deo.html
Funny humour and excellent cinematography, 👍🏻
I had your symptoms for years, it turns out I was diabetic but it went undetected. For some reason it never showed up in my blood tests, but after a (long) while it finally showed up. The good news is, it is treatable, the bad news is, after years of untreated diabetes it damaged my arteries. Don't be satisfied with just seeing one doctor, seek out different ones until you find out. Please don't leave it until it's too late like I did, I had blind trust in this one medical centre, and this centre had blind faith in their senior partner who misdiagnosed me as suffering from ME.
I started watching this, then watched that one, then came back to this one...and talking about stress is REALLY familiar. I was a freelancer, and knew I wasn't exactly neurotypical but wasn't sure if I was neurodiverse, and I had really bad phyical symptoms due to anxiety and stress. Weirdly not as someone who is likely on the autistic part of the spectrum the lack of order, but more what I now know as Persistent Demand Avoidance - I liked being able to control my work and not go back to places, then clients liked me and asked me back, but started to annoy me after a few times. I now know I was avoiding those demands....but I did have physical symptoms from stress and eventually had complete burnout. Hence why I am not a designer/animator any more. So beware.
@@nicerperson1 funnily enough just had the tests for all that, after Paul Messner's recent video in fact. And it turns out it's not diabetes, or high blood pressure...but I think high cholesterol. Not sure, because the doctor decided it was non-urgent and scheduled an appointment for nearly 2 weeks later...which was weirdly reassuring vs having DKA like a diabetic friend thought. But I can see the test results online.
Oddly if it is high cholestorol, or indeed neurodiversity - not had THAt conversation with my doctor yet, likely will raise it when they bring up diet because some stuff I cannot eat due to texture - it's a bit of an issue cos other health conditions - and indeed my genetics - trying to control that with diet. The usual 'eat fibre, eat veg' does not work with me that well.
Really sorry to hear about your health and hope it’s improving soon. Shame about the negative feedback,some folk are just not dialled in to how their comments can be so detrimental to one’s health, regardless as to if it’s justified or not. Great video as always and what a stunning place to be out in nature.Thanks for sharing. Best wishes,Mark
Thanks Mark. I’m used to negative feedback from clients, been getting it for years. But it does always throw you a bit when it’s unexpected and makes it difficult to concentrate on other things until you’ve resolved it. Takes
a min or two to process and cant take it personally but there’s that moment when you first read it that it’s hard not to!
Pleased to say I went back and re-edited the video that the feedback was for and honestly it’s a better video now.
Have u been checked for lyme disease or been bitten by a tick
@Ralph Reilly oh dear, oh dear; you've just no idea have you?
@@leestockton9367 Yes he has, you and this guy are just a pair of little Princesses. " If I don't get good attention, I'm not well ! ". Grow a spine.
@@StephenJReid
Stephen....if you expect to expose yourself in UA-cam videos and not get q certain amount of haters....
You are incredibly naive or get off on the attention...
Sorry to hear that your health is suffering! I honestly love your camping/hiking videos - I hope you manage to get to the root of the cause and bounce back we need more of your awesome content in our lives 🙌 best wishes!
Thanks! Roll on the warmer weather
The effort you put into these videos is excellent mate. Well done 👍🏼
Thanks Chris 🙂
Sorry to hear that you often feel bad Stephen. Please take good care of yourself.
We love the outdoor video’s, but it shouldn't be at the expense of your health of course.😉
Thanks! I’ll see how things go, maybe I just need to van camp more in colder weather instead.
I had one of these in the 90s. Advertised as low profile so doesn't easily absorb the winds. I found it impracticable for my purposes. Still a great piece of kit if you want something small and light to carry.
Stephen you are among the very best on UA-cam. You are the type of person who strives to always do your very best and that can be stressful. I hope you are inundated with positivity and your ill health ends soon.
Thanks so much Gordon 🙂 Here’s to warmer weather!
I am a first time viewer of your videos...and glad to say just the one video was all i needed to subscribe...the quality, the soundtrack, the information without it being thrown at you is all second to none...you managed to make it feel like I was out there myself....definetly getting the tents and packs back out after this...p.s from the comments you have a lot of positive feedback so keep on going..
Thanks so much Alex, really glad you enjoyed it! I try to mix things up a bit with the styles and types of video as you'll see.
Enjoyed the video, thanks for all the work on our behalf. That tent wasn't much bigger than a pizza oven, too small for me. Love the content, the humour and the photography. No negative feedback from here.
Sorry to hear about the symptoms you are suffering from. They do sound remarkably like my Long Covid symptoms, with the same triggers. I am learning to adapt my life to it. Stress, lack of sleep, overworking, and overexertion all set it off. Learn to be kinder to yourself and accept the love and help from your lovely wife and family, it's the best medicine.
Negative comments are such an easy thing to give without any thought about what impact they may have and rarely come with any alternative, positive suggestions.
All the best, Keith
Thanks Keith 🙂 You’re not the only one that made the pizza oven comparison, it really does look like one! 😂
Long covid is on my list of possibilities, like you say, symptoms very similar. Hope you keep adapting and more so hope you get over it soon!
Used to negative comments from clients, but they always catch you off guard at first.
I've just discovered your videos. I was hooked within a minute. Please never quit
Thanks Heather! 🙂
That’s wick about feeling ill so often especially after doing something you enjoy. Not something you can take a pill for either. Rest up when you can. All the best.
Yeah, hopefully figure it out. But just have to deal with it currently
been stressed about work all night and this video came in clutch 😅❤
Glad it helped. I’ve since found exercising a lot more and eating a lot more veg and cutting a lot of junk food seems to have helped a lot
Totally with you on this Stephen. I've just started to notice some changes in my own heath when im not out and about. Sometimes i finish work and go straight out on a camp just to relax a bit. Literally as soon as i get in and get a message or email 'boom' it all goes down hill again. Mentally i think I'm strong but my body is telling me otherwise.I hope you find the ballance that you need soon Stephen. Great stuff as always 👍
Yup sounds similar! Crazy how much your mind affects everything else. Shows how important it is to take care of head and body.
I get stress sick too. Camping makes me happy and calm. Even going for a drive in the mountains is good.
We are wired to need the outdoors
also, I have a OEX Salamander coffin tent and often carry a lightweight tarp and use it to cover the gear and keep it dry folding it and a couple of pegs comes in really handy
Cracking video mate. Amazing scenery. Sorry to hear about the health issues. Stress eventually has to go somewhere. That's when the physical symptoms appear. Fingers crossed you get to the bottom of it. Looking forward to the next camp!
True, stress anything and eventually it will crack. Thanks 🙂
I subbed with the first minute, I love your humour and I’m obsessed with camping videos
I’m from Canada and my dream is to go to Ireland one day, your channel is the perfect amalgamation of my passions!
All my best to you and your health, I’ll be binge watching your videos now
Well I want to go to Canada someday and see a proper big wilderness area.
Welcome to the channel, it’s a mix of things but hope you enjoy!
Love the video Stephen, it's amazing how you capture the Mournes, best of luck with your health, hope your energy improves throughout this year.
Thank you Nigel! Better weather always helps, I do generally feel low energy at the start of the year before things warm up.
This is my first time coming across your channel. I enjoyed your video and look forward to seeing more. Get well soon!
Thanks Garry 🙂 I’ve another great camping video coming this weekend!
Hi Stephen. Just a thought, have you looked at your water filter? Do you change it or steralise it much in case there is some bacterial transfer? Might cause sickness for a few days after a camp. Probably not but maybe worth a look.
Cheers for posting, might look into a camp there myself soon 😊
Hmmm I think I only had hot drinks from the river water so it was filtered and boiled. But not a bad shout to maybe sterilise my filter.
Great video, I use a side entry bivvy bag and take a small tarp just big enough to cook under
This has been a fantastic video Stephen, It was wonderful editing as usual. Hope you're doing ok. I know this video was from a while ago
Thanks! One of my favourite videos from the last year. All good now 🙂
The hatred for the litterer earned you a sub.
🤣 Thanks!
You continue to crack me up. Praying for good health for you!
Thanks Donovan, appreciate it
So much fun watching the video, thank you
Thank you! 🙂
Brilliant vid as always mate, your editing is class too - I’m the equivalent to a one finger typer when it comes to editing 😂
Thanks Daz 🙂
this was fun! thank you taking us with your adventure!
You’re welcome!
Bless you, you kept using the word ‘tent’ to describe that Rab thing you slept in. Very generous of you! 😂
If it has poles, it’s a tent 😂
@@StephenJReid haha that’s the spirit. Have a top day
First video of yours I've watched and I really enjoyed it. Beautiful scenery and a tent I've been curious about for a while, and your patter is great fun.
Thank you! 🙂 hope you enjoy some of my other videos too, bit of a variety. I’ll have to do another trip with this tent soon too!
This is so well edited 👏
Take a second to appreciate the amazing camera work here.
Thanks! 🙂
i'm like 2 mins into the vid and somehow already love your vibe lmao
Thank you! 🙂
No way i could get dressed in that tent!! I tried one once and was getting cramps and restless legs all night!
Awesome adventure though, i enjoyed it so thanks mate.
It's quite the task dressing in it! Glad you enjoyed the video
Unreal that place didn’t look that awesome from a distance! Then Bam it’s like a lil hidden paradise 💥
Yeah it looks so unassuming, which is why people ignore it. Hardly even anyone local has heard of it
Sorry to hear about your health mate, i hope you get to the bottom of it and are able to over come it. Nice to see your camping again in the mournes
Thanks! 🙂 Third camp in the Mournes this year I think, and hopefully more to come
We love your videos... sending you positive vibes and warmest wishes for a resolution to your health issues. Xx
Thanks Vicky 🙂🙂
What a cracker, no negative feedback here. It takes courage to camp out alone, but sharing health issues is next level, hope you work out what the trigger is. (PS: My Paramo is 15 years old and still waterproofish, it performs much better than anything else).
Video of the morning was like watching some alien being born lol
😂😂 felt like it too!
Nice video. I got my first hooped bivi in the late 80s and I have enjoyed some great nights under stars, wind, heavy snow and rain. Once you get the routine right its a pleasure. My most recent Rab Raider is old and does not have those snazzy guy ropes. I'm jelzybub.
I’ve had some good nights in it, you’re right it’s all about the routine.
Hi Brother.
I am actually suffering the same symptoms as you.
I also think its stress... I cannot afford meeting the doctor though... (I'm on the PH and on the lower income level). The information you shared here helped me feel better knowing im not alone.
Camp on!
Hi Jemar, well hopefully it helps to know that I’m feeling A LOT better now. I’ve tried improving my diet, a lot more veg, exercising more and taking some fish oil tablets. Dunno which thing is helping but something is!
Was up in the Mournes many moons ago,woke up middle of the night May 1st………….snowing 🙄
Lovely place to be ( in any weather)
Nice vid 👍
Haha, been a cold May this year too. Thankfully warming up a bit now. Glad you enjoyed the vid
Great video. 1st one I’ve watched. Very funny 😂😂😂. Looking forward to watching more. Hope you get the health problem sorted 👍
Thanks Darren 😁
amazing video !!
I would recommend you to make a fasting month where you eat only fruits and water this will make you like new
I’ve made major improvements to my diet but don’t think I’d go as far as a fruit only fast.
Do what you think the best Is!
My suggestion Is here only to plant a seed in your mind, Who knows maybe One day you Will try fasting with fruits only and you Will see a massive improvements in your health. Mostly its because fasting resets some parts of the body(like immune system, etc) and It helps the body to fight these "diseases"
I’m a burnout recovery coach and my wife and I have a functional medicine practice. When someone comes to us with symptoms similar to yours we test body system function. Most of our clients work with us when their GP tests come back normal. You can’t have any health symptom without their being an underlying body system dysfunction. That’s our first level of inquiry. Second level of inquiry is to find out HOW your body systems got all wonky in the first place. So 1) test 2) tray body systems 3) find and fix root cause :)
Hope you’re feeling better.
Thanks Chris. Currently working on the theory it’s stress related and having success so far 🙂
Congratulations. Excellent trip 👌💪🙂
Thank you for the video, I enjoyed it very much.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Stephen that looked more like torture than fun ! Fab video though and thanks for sharing. Hope you`re feeling better soon ! 😄
Haha, wasn’t that bad. No midges! And thanks 🙂
The Algorithm sent me this video and I really enjoyed it, looking forward to watching more. Hope you're feeling ok.
Thank you Elisabeth 🙂
Sorry to hear about your health issues , as someone who is also self employed I can relate to your comments re stress etc , I havnt been right since Christmas and slightly worse lately , work has been difficult of late and because of the this and the weather I havnt been out running or cycling but I’m wondering if it’s because I havnt exercised much I’ve got a bit down and things have got on top of me , hoping to put that right , another great video Steve , thank you
Well I’ve noticed since I started getting a lot more active now that the weather has improved and days are longer than I’m feeling a lot more energetic already. Definitely has an impact
Just found your channel, but extreme fatigue after cold exposure is common in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Given your time outdoors insect born viruses might be worth looking into. Hope you feel better soon. Health is everything. Love the video btw 😊
Glad you like the video 🙂 CFS on my list of possibilities. My dad had it for years
The trouble is your passionate about your work and aim to please . If we could care less is would be easier. Take it easy old boy, one day at a time. Live for the present. Look to far ahead and it will mess with your mind
partly agree with that. But one big reason I get a lot of stress is because I don't look ahead and then ahead catches up and I haven't planned properly. Live for the today and you'll starve tomorrow.
@@StephenJReid live everyday an you will never starve
Hoping you recover!
Been watching your fun and funny camping videos here in the Philippines. And they are just brilliantly made. Wish you all the success.
Planning to see more of your handy work.
God bless and mabuhay!
Thank you! 🙂
Amazing to know someone on the other side of the world is enjoying a video I’ve made!
God bless, slainte 🙂
Loved this video , you really made me laugh out loud at points. Hope your health improves soon .😊
Thank you! 🙂
I've always considered getting one of those bivy tents for fastpacking. You've got a similar channel to mine here except I'm on Vancouver island.
Years ago when I worked in a camera shop my boss was from Vancouver.
Hope you start feeling better, suppressed stress, you never know. ❤❤🙏🌈
Thanks Alan. It’s a weird one.
Just found your channel! Youre an awesome content creator! Ive subbed! Sorry to hear about the illness 🤒 hope you get that sorted! Theres no way i could sleep in that tent hahaha! Our three man is small enough for me 😅
Thank you! Welcome aboard 🙂
First of your videos i have watched and very impressed 👏. Really sorry about your illness. Sure sounds a lot like long covid or long vx injury. Really hope you find solutions soon.
Thanks! Think it was stress now
Love the video...fantastic editing, and you have a PERSONALITY..Subbed !!
Yay, welcome aboard subby! 🎉 🙂🙂 Thanks!
5:40 thankyou, followed by moody stare
Just found your channel. you're hilarious and the video content/quality is top notch. Great!
Thansk! 🙂
Fantastic video as always buddy. Your cinematography skills never cease to amaze me 🤩👌👌
thanks! 🙂
Buy a mini tarp for that tent, imagine that trip and it starts raining, cheers for sharing
Once you start adding a tarp, it just makes sense to bring a bigger tent
Great video! The drone shots are incredible!
Thanks Michael 🙂
Good film as always dude! Keep up the good work! I’ve got one of those tiny bivvy tents great for cycling touring and longer days on the hills!
Thanks JuJu! Think I’ll wait until warmer weather before using it again though!
@@StephenJReid yes does help! I used mine all year round! Hard to use in wild winters and snow as you’ll need a cover of some sort 100%
Stephen I love your Videos. Sad to hear that your joy brings you such pain...I hope you get to the bottom of your health issues.
Why create more pain for yourself using a bivy tent ? Remember that your comfort on the hill is directly proportional to what you are prepared to carry.
Mind yourself.
Thanks Shay, it’s actually comfortable once you get into it. Only really a problem when the weather is bad and this was colder and wetter than forecast
Hey Stephen, I was actually planning the exact same trip in the next week or two so great to see your take on it! Hares Castle is a crackin wee spot, amazing views of the Annalong valley. Hope the sickness didn't last too long, your health is your wealth I believe they say! I'm potentially on the lookout for a satellite device, I've seen the Zoleo on a lot of US videos so really interested on how you find it compares to the Garmin. Those Firepot meals are really tasty, just tried a couple of them the other week in Wicklow and they really hit the spot, definitely one of the better ones. Great video as always Stephen, thanks again for sharing, ATB.
Great minds think alike! The Zoleo has just launched in the UK but has been on the go elsewhere for a lot longer.
So far I’m mostly preferring it to the Garmin. App is much better designed and being able to have people contact you is a great feature.
try an inflatable tent roll, like inflatable beach mattress packed size
Rain is the perfect weather for camping.
Maybe a very light rain, after I’ve gone to bed and dry in the morning 😂
Dry in the morning. Yes 👌👌👌👌
Just found your channel and I really enjoyed watching this video. Great content and that tent looked really cosy! You’re very brave to camp alone. Great work!
Thanks! 🙂 Camping solo is kinda scary the first time or two but you get used to it.
I've watched quite a lot of wild camping videos, but dude, you're really funny! And entertainingly clumsy, or normal, or whatever you want to call it. I loved the video! And I also have a tent almost just like yours, except it probably has more condensation problems than yours. And you're right, there is something about them, even if they must be annoyingly impractical when the weather is not great, like waking up to rain. :) Anyway, great video.
Thank you! 😁😁
Really sorry to hear about your health. Hopefully it isn't too bad and the doctors will be able to diagnose it soon. Just as well you haven't taken a stroke.
Always happy to have not had a stroke 😂
Bivy style "tents" like those are so much easier to get in and out of if it uses a side zipper. However, the main problem with those types of "tents" is that they rest on top of your sleeping bag and they have a horrible problem with condensation, so in cold weather they will soak your sleeping bag. You can avoid this by covering your sleeping bag with a mylar blanket, but it might be better to just get a bit bigger of a tent, where the walls are pulled up off your sleeping bag.
This one is actually great for not having much condensation even in cold weather. The fabric it’s made from is amazing. But it is very expensive compared to most of them
Brilliant, enjoyed that one
Thanks Andrew 🙂
Anxiety manifests in everyone differently, I recently went on SSRI'S for anxiety disorder, and I was convinced there was something physically wrong with me for months. No shame checking it out. My regards.
Glad you found a solution!
@@StephenJReid thank you!
I love this video and the camera placement is impeccable , I'm sorry to hear about your health and I hope you figure out what's wrong.
Thank you! Took my time on the day, just me so I could spent ages finding shots I liked 🙂
I was kayak-camping with Harry and a couple women he invited. It started to rain and I saw one woman in her bivy so called out "I have wine" and she was instantly in my 3p tent with an empty glass. By the time the rain and wine ended, she left.
Harry Houdini?
Hey Stephen. I`m currently struggeling with a very similar health situation. I really hope that you find a way to get better! Great Video by the way.
Hey Pascal, so for me it really seems to be stress related. Exercising more and improving my diet seems to have improved things a lot. As well as trying to find a better balance with work
@@StephenJReid That makes sense for me as well. I hope/ I think we will find that balance again!
Yeah being in a small tent in constant rain is why I got a Lanshan 2, my Lanshan 1 is great....but depressing when stuck in one for a day.
Yeah I’m planning on getting a 2 man tent this winter
What an entertaining video, cheers from Indonesia, youve got a new subs
Thank you! 🙂
Bro, really likred the video. Keep on rocking, But quick tip, don't check business email on vacation, since no one pays you for thits. I did it myself and just learned it is so wrong in many ways.A big hug from this locaion i'm from :P love
You’re right! Problem for me though is I’m self employed so I kinda do get paid for doing emails on holiday. Have to force myself not to though
Great Video and to be honest I thought you were putting out a lot of videos. I think a lot of us have been feeling symptoms like you've suggested. Certainly the start of this year for me has been a pain in the hooped bivy! I'm gonna put it down to covid relayed lack of exposure to proper germs... We'll see! Anyway I hope you're health goes back in the right direction soon!
Thanks! Yeah I think maybe it could be covid related, it’s messed a lot of us up more than we realise I think.
I’ve more camps planned soonish so I’ll see how they go. Might bring a biggger tent though.
Really great video mate, some excellent photography. Hope you sort yourself out.
Thanks Gary 🙂
Gr8t Video Bonnie Lad all the best with your Health
Thanks! 🙂
Watching your videos always makes me realise how much more I have to learn and improve with my own outdoors videos. Really enjoyable watch and very impressive edit - this channel deserves to be bigger.
Thanks Jake! 🙂 I don’t always put the same effort in with every single video as it’s really time consuming to make videos like this. But hopefully at least one a month to this standard. Working on a good one atm for this weekend. It’s camping related but a bit of a twist.
@@StephenJReid I can imagine how long the edit was !
@@JakeMay Takes about 8hours for a video like this. Some take a lot longer.
@@StephenJReid much faster workflow than me then! Takes me about 8 hours to edit a much shorter, much more lo-fi vid!
@@JakeMay 4 years ago it would have taken me about 4x as long but I've made 500+ videos since then so my editing has sped up a lot, but still never feels fast enough. I've been editing videos for about 10+ years and always something to learn
Great content dude, just started watching and the quality and content is great. On the illness side of things I have been getting sick alot to all since covid, so although doctor says might be ADHD related or stress don't discount the fact since covid alot of our immune systems have been affected, but your a healthy guy and I think if you stay positive and keep the body in good shape I'm sure you will improve Iver time. Chin up and great work.
Thanks for watching! 🙂 Doctor actually thinking similar, most likely to be ADHD related
Great video again pal, hope you start feeling better , I myself at this time of the year, usually march/april feel run down and un motivated, exactly the same as you, but when I start the summer months camping and hiking I start to feel better and more energetic mate, so glad you didn’t turn round, that’s the last thing you should do pal, if you ever end up on the Lake District for a hike give me a shout pal, take care, bivvy looks interesting though 👍
Thanks Mark! Definitely the winter makes things worse, noticing a big change since things warmed up in general. Don’t think we are designed to not see the sun for half the year 😂
Do live in the Lake District? Know a few people from there and one of my client (Fibrus) is doing work there atm so might get over again this year. Hard to know though
@@StephenJReid I actually live in Blackpool, not far away tbh, but go there most time, work permitting 👍
Great video
Thanks Scott!
Top video thanks mate, liked n subbed for further escapades 😮
Thanks Jon!
Loving your videos. maybe im a crazy but anytime i get bad feedback or its negative to the extent where the person is trying to be mean/rude, i completely ignore it and act like it never happened. I cant say its the same all the time, but learning to make yourself happy is the most important thing.
Yeah I’ve started just not responding and deleting really negative comments. I’d just leave and ignore most of them but then they would appear in google studio and I would still see them
@@StephenJReid I’m sorry you go through that, just know that for whatever negativity you may receive from people…hundreds of us still appreciate whatever you do.❤️
"And if I press that button, it'll immediately send a mess..."
"Louise, hi, no it's just a test, no cancel the air ambulance. No I'm just making a UA-cam video. What do you mean it only happened once before. OK twice. Hello?"
haha, had to do 3 takes!
That midge township looks like the spot where all the melted snow and rainfall gathers in a swampy puddle in an underlying rock basin, bringing with it enough dust particles and organic debris for a bit of grass to grow on top, during dryer spells, and making it a perfect watertrap for campers once it starts raining heavily, enough, just saying. It’s like the Venus Flytrap of the hills. With midges.
there's a small stream just beside. But the ground here at this spot is quite dry most of the year, but there's lots of open land around with boggy patches
@@StephenJReid Well there you go. It’s just the kind of spot I’d be a bit wary of if I didn’t know it in advance. Especially if it was particularly thoroughly infested with skeeters …
Great channel thanks 👍
Just wanted to say past two years I'm exactly the same as yourself sore throat etc generally tired on off constantly doctor tried tell me stress or eat better 🤔.. ok doc , I'm 44 year old male normally fit and healthy, suspect it's since I had COVID in early spring two years ago, anyhoow don't give up, searching for the cause and get well soon 👍👍
Long Covid was also on the list of possibilities for me. One thing at a time though.
If you watch my next video, the doctor likes there’s a likely explanation.
My history of this pre-dates the pandemic. It’s definitely been worse the last 2years but I’ve also had a lot more stress with my work in the last year.
That's not a tent - a swag is a tent!
I’d say a swag isn’t a tent, it’s a heavy portable bed with a rain cover 😂
It’s called exposure. It’s when your body isn’t acclimated to hot and cold. Also you have allergies. Exposure symptoms are exacerbated in people with allergies (you won’t find that online) me and my brother have it. We get it worst when the seasons change (pollen production) and work outside. Edit: I work in the mold industry in America. I would suggest changing filters and getting an environmentalist to test your indoor air quality.
I’ll add this theory to the list. Think I have over 10 possibilities now 🙈
Have checked with a specialist on like ticks cause I got lime camping in America from a tick and I had the weirdest stuff go in with my body my blood work would come back fine but I wasn’t
Thanks! 🙂 got tested for Lymes but negative thankfully
I like paramo stuff but wish they would do like Lundhags does on some of their similar jackets and keep the top half the jacket (shoulders, hood, etc) in waterproof goretex material and then the rest of the jacket is a polycotton breathable blend that can be treated with nikwax. I have this exact Lundhags jacket and its amazing.
Think it goes against their ethos of no PFAS
@@StephenJReid I assume you mean PFC? Most manufacturers in Sweden don't use PFC's anymore. This includes Lundhags. You will commonly see the markings of "PFC-free", which includes PFA
Anxiety buddy, or PTSD … wish you well .. I suffer from this .. 💯❤❤❤❤❤ Love the sarcasm and humour !
Thank you 🙂
Amazing video. Just a tad piece of positive advice from a viewer. The saturation is just a tad to much. It's welcome. But a little tiny bit to much.
Thanks Jeremiah!
No clue to why you are feeling unwell after a camp but I can recommend a few pints of Murphy’s as a stress reliever.
That a medically recognised cure? 😂
@@StephenJReid worked for me every time I was knackered while fishing in Co Kerry. 😊
I paused this at the second 7. I did so for I noticed the make of your tent: RAB. I will expect the tent to perform amazingly......we shall see!!!!
It’s a solid tent, would easily take on much worse conditions but as I said, then how do you cook? Cold food only
Thanks for replying . And I have to confess that....I am fixated by your jacket!
Haha, love my new jacket.
