Are You a Good Doomsday Prepper? Are You Prepared?

As a Survivalist, it certainly is important that you be vigilant in your prepping so that you can leave in a moments notice. I confess that I'm a procrastinator. I purchased four 5 gallon plastic gas cans and stored them in my garage. They sat there empty for pretty much 60 days. It so happened the price of gas went lower by 20 cents while they were sitting there, but had gas skyrocketed my survival preps may have been useless.

One of the most important steps to being self sufficient is to make sure you work towards your goal before you are at crunch time. As a prepper you should be taking time at least once a month to look at what you have done, what you still need to do and assess a plan of action to complete these goals. Even something as simple as checking expiration dates on items can become critical so you need to be sure to check on your survival cache on a regular basis. After you have done this a couple of times it will become second nature.

This appears to be somewhat usual among survivalists. Many have plenty of things in the works that are not complete so that when the shit does hit the fan they're barely ready for that emergency. Perhaps you have fallen into this category? Do you got a bug out bag that either sits empty near a lot of other products or possibly hidden in certain place where it is sometimes complicated to access? When was the final time you checked the products so you'd be sure you have the right products inside and that none of them are past it's expiration? Have you thought about various survival situations to re-asses items you have inside your bug out bag and what else that you might need to get? The reality for many is that they haven't.

Why haven't you, do you expect once the shit hits the fan you will have the time to proceed making your B.O.B. or have enough time to get everything prepared? Or would you imagine getting the stuff is as far as you have to go. What could happen if something happens that precipitates bugging out really fast. Say a nuclear blast, a train derailment with toxic fumes, as well as something similar to a large sink hole near your house like happened in Florida in May of 2012. These situations could cause you to quickly evacuate your home. Would you like to be prepared or would you like to be caught with your pants down like countless People in America who barely possess the resources and whits to last even a few days after a major incident?

If you are wanting to learn more about survival training then you should look for forums that can help you find the knowledge that you need to help you become more aware for any doomsday situation. On these sites you will often find many good people willing to guide you along your path to become a prepper. Beware that not everyone on there has your interests at heart so be sure to be safe and not give out too much info about your state of readiness.

Many sites have articles on items such as food canning, dehydrating, drying food, personal safety and many other great topics. When you first start to look at becoming a prepper these topics are often daunting and take a while to jump in and get going, but once you have done this you will find that you learn to take on challenges more easily and that's going to be a mighty fine ability to have if the proverbial shit hits the fan.

Don't be afraid to participate in the conversation as you might have more information than others and might be as much a teacher as a student.

Everyday Reasons for Becoming a Prepper Besides a Doomsday Scenario

The prepper movement has become more and more mainstream over the last year or two but there are still some with odd reactions. Im sure we have all heard some of the comments about preppers like they are nuts, paranoid worry warts, and onward. There are many who don't believe that any sort of doomsday scenario will ever occur with in their lifetime. But the doomsday or end of world scenario alone is not the only reason to do a little prepping.

There are reasons which are a little more mainstream and may even make a little more sense even to those of you who don't believe in prepping. We have listed here some reasons to have emergency supplies and stock piles like many modern day prepper would have. You may want to consider some of these reasons to prep even though you still wouldn't consider yourself a prepper.

Natural Disasters - Most of us live in an area that can be hit by some kind of natural disaster be it a hurricane, tornado, or earthquake. This may not be a doomsday scenario but having a bit of preparedness could go a real long way to making your life easier on you and your family in this sort of situation.

Unemployment/Job Loss - With the economy in the shape its in these days job security is shaky for more Americans then ever before. Having a emergency food and supplies stock could be a huge edge for keeping you and your family fed and house running if you happen to have a sudden job loss or a massive cut in hours

Evacuations - Never know when something happens in your area which causes you to make a quick evacuation from your home. Having a bug out type bag that can be grabbed quickly containing important documents and supplies can be very important. Having all your important papers and supplies organized can be a lifesaver.

Power Outages - Sudden and possibly extended power outages are something everyone has to deal with at some point. Having some emergency prepper supplies packed away can make a huge difference in keeping your family fed and as comfortable as possible.

House Fire - This could happen to any of us at any time and having a evacuation plan and a bug out type bag could be a life saver. With little to no time to get out of the home to avoid death or injury a little prepping could make the difference in saving the lives of you and your family and getting out some of your important paperwork, information, and supplies.

Mechanical Car Problems - I know not all of us travel in out of the way area's at least on a consistent basis but if you do having a little prepping done could be very important. A breakdown can happen anywhere so having a way to communicate for help along with keeping you and your family hydrated, fed, and warm if needed until help arrives is a must. So a little prepping in this case can go a long way.

Becoming a prepper doesn't mean you have to believe the world is going to end tomorrow or next week but simply being a little more prepared for various situations. You also don't have to have massive stockpiles of food and supplies to be a prepper simply putting away enough to keep you and your family fed and hydrated should something unexpected happen can be enough for you. There is no set way or set of rules for being a prepper each and every one of us can be a prepper in our own way.

Why Getting in Shape Before Doomsday Is Extremely Important

Have you ever watched that show on National Geographic, "Doomsday Preppers". It is a show about real life people who are preparing to survive the apocalypse. Survival experts rate their preparations and they are given a score based on how likely they are to survive. If you have ever seen this show, you know that a great deal of these "preppers" as they are called, are completely overweight and in absolutely horrendous physical condition. This begs the question, how do these people expect to survive doomsday when they look like they are in need of a quadruple bypass.

People preparing for "the apocalypse" are becoming more and more common because the way things are going in the world. But in their preparations, they often over look the importance of being physically fit. If doomsday really did happen and people were forced to leave their homes to "head for the hills" how many of these super out of shape preppers could actually hack it?

If you are forced to leave your home due to some apocalyptic scenario, you are essentially reduced to a refugee. You will need to wander in search of supplies, resources and food. You will need to hunt and gather and be physically fit enough to plant crops, defend yourself and perform a variety of tasks like chopping fire wood or walking long distances.

Most of the people on this show look like they couldn't run a full mile, let alone blaze a trail out into the wilderness surviving off the land. If you really were going to be serious about "doomsday prepping" wouldn't you consider physical fitness a primary aspect of concern?

Instead of all of their elaborate defenses to protect their home, they should be spending some of that money on a treadmill and getting their bodies as prepared as their defenses. After all, you can't expect to always be at home, you will need to eventually go out in search of supplies no matter how well stocked you are. Walking and running won't be options after your fuel supply runs out and tasks like chopping and splitting wood require a certain degree of physical fitness that would be completely overwhelming to an out of shape "prepper".

Developing a daily workout routine should be a critical aspect of preparing for doomsday, your physical body is your best defense and if you are in horrible shape how could you ever expect to last for any length of time anyway?

So my advice to these doomsday preppers is, spend a little time running on a treadmill everyday and it will benefit you even if doomsday never occurs.

If you are the type of person who has all of the gear you need to survive the apocalypse and you are actively preparing for doomsday, you probably want to invest in a treadmill and some workout equipment to keep your body as prepared for survival as your home. You can get some of the best treadmills for under $500, so their really is no excuse not to add this to your survival repertoire. Stay fit and healthy, body, mind and soul it will benefit you no matter what happens!

Doomsday Preppers: How to Doomsday Prep?

Many people have seen the show Doomsday Preppers and their first question always seems to be? How do I become a doomsday prepper? Just by asking the question it shows that you are already on your way. A doomsday prepper isn't made overnight, it takes time and effort usually and also funds to buy stuff.

Several articles on this site have touched on the basics but this one will be a bit more advanced.

Before you go out and buy a bunch of gear you need to think about what you are prepping for? Are you concerned that the government won't be able to provide for your safety and well being? Are you concerned because you live in a tsunami or hurricane zone where you may be without resources for more than a couple of days? Or are you worried the power grid will go down and will take weeks or months to get repaired? All of these are good reasons to start your survival preparations today.

As a prepper my hope is that I will never need to use the items I have in my prepper cache. At the same time though I don't want to be the one to be saying OMG I can't believe that just happened and not have the stuff I need to survive the aftermath of any given survival situation.

So to become a prepper you will want to assess what threats you face that you need to be prepared for. If they are chemical in nature or nuclear a gas mask and iodine pills should be in your survival kit for sure. If you are in a place where a natural disaster is going to be an issue it'd be good to keep your prepper supplies mobile and have a well stocked bug out bag and items like a water bladder for your bathtub to give you access to clean water.

If you are thinking hyperinflation is going to be a problem then having a ready supply of food will be the answer. You might be interested in learning to can food or buy prepared dehydrated or frozen food, or even survival bars. This will allow you to buy products now that you will need in the future and may not be able to get. Having a 3 month food supply or a 1 year food supply will give you a lot of security when it comes to hyperinflation.

Security is on item that will also need to be taken into account. Most people believe that people are inherently good, but that is only when they are not faced with adversity such as you'd see when there are no products on the store shelf or when gas is $5.00 a gallon. Many people that you would assume to be nice, won't be so nice. Having ample security to be able to protect your family and your home is very critical. If you can't afford a gun, maybe a stun gun, or even a baseball bat is better than nothing. But assume if you have it and others don't they want yours.

So to start your doomsday prepping efforts begin by assessing what you have and what you need. What is your weakest point. Once you have that look at what you need to improve those areas that are weakest.

Generally a survival cache will include: food, water, security items, person hygiene items, first aid items and survival gear such as a tent, sleeping bags etc.

Good luck and if you have any questions please post a comment below.

At http://www.doomsday-preppers.com you will find a wide variety of survival products for everyone from urban survivalist to the hard core emergency prepper. We have Gas Masks, Survival food and much more available.

Doomsday Preppers Must Include This Essential Element in Their Emergency Preparations

Planning for your own health should generally be at the core of virtually any doomsday preppers' plans. All the food, water, as well as supplies in any part of the world are actually not going to aide you in a catastrophe provided you are not adequately healthy to perform your emergency action plan. People are commonly forced to push theirselves physically immediately after a tragedy due to abrupt challenges and the increased loss of modern-day conveniences. Are you aware that more than seventy thousand Americans wound up with a personal injury warranting a doctors visit in 2008 after shoveling snow.

Moreover, hundreds of those appointments happened to be due to cardiac arrest as reported by the Consumer Products Safety Commission? If this many people are severely injured merely because of shoveling snow, just how many of them could have been competent at running a few miles to refuge or cutting up/lifting rubble for some time. Remaining in good physical condition can give you numerous benefits in emergencies:

Healthy Individuals Tend to Be Less Prone to Health Problems and Medical Conditions

Exercise allows you to decrease the bad cholesterol (LDL) which results in coronary disease and will increase the good cholesterol (HDL) that may protect against heart related illnesses. Doomsday preppers that work out regularly are likely to decrease their risk of serious health issues and infirmities which actually could easily develop to be serious issues in a crisis.

Exercise Enhances Your Overall Strength

Planning for a disaster should always consist of getting ready for the heightened physical demands of an unexpected emergency. The more you engage in physical activity and build your all-around degree of physical fitness at this time, the more you will be able to take on when calamity happens in the future. By building up your endurance and strength through regular physical exercise, you can expect increase your personal autonomy in a disaster.

Bodily Exercise Enhances Your Mind

An individual's mental wellness will sharpen with consistent workouts as well. Physical activity in many cases can be a powerful antidepressant as well as can decrease the symptoms of depression. Maintaining strong mental wellness is imperative during the stressful situations generated in a disaster. Staying nimble physically will most likely help you stay agile mentally, they are both essential to your security in an emergency.

Act by committing to make your health a priority as you plan for a serious event. Start modestly by doing little things like walking around your area to better acquaint yourself with your environment. Create aspirations for yourself based on your current day circumstances and crisis plan. It may be the most significant prepping endeavor you do in your life.

Living Underground in a Doomsday Bunker / Shipping Container

As an avid prepper I long ago converted my wife into like thinking. She's as much of a prepper as I am now and in some cases even more so. When it comes to a doomsday bunker that's where we part ways. She has her mind set on not being able to live in a "coffin" as she calls it. Ideally I'd like to bury a couple of shipping containers that are built specifically for living in. I would be content with the top of the containers being maybe a foot up above ground level and letting a dirt berm or shrubs block the visibility.

My ideal shelter would have quite a few windows in that exposed area so you wouldn't get that feeling of being buried. Even with that said she still doesn't think she could live in it. I asked how that's different than being in a basement with windows and she said it would feel more confined. With nearly 400 square feet of living space a shipping container would work very well and give ample room. If you had several of them there would be even more space.

So one of the big items to address if you are looking to turn a shipping container into an underground house is how it will be received by your family members. I obviously didn't take the time to properly discuss it with her so she'd understand the details of living in a shipping container. I think had I taken time to talk more about things I'd do to make it a liveable doomsday bunker I'd have a much smaller hill to climb right now.

So assuming that I get past that I have started thinking about the ideal configuration for an underground bunker built from a steel shipping container. I think using 4 containers together would make for an ideal configuration. The goal would be to make living areas for 4-6 people.

With 4 of these you would have nearly 1,600 square feet of underground bunker space and 2 large living areas and 4 smaller areas. One large living area I would dedicate to a kitchen, food storage etc. The other large living area would be dedicated to a more family or group oriented room where similar to what a living room is now.

The 4 smaller rooms would probably amount to 2 or 3 bedrooms and one bonus room for storage and all the other stuff one would need to live underground for a longer period of time. With limited space it would need to be well organized but certainly a 1,600 sq foot bunker would work well.

The layout would be 4 of these staggered back and forth with a 50% overlap. The 2nds would start halfway up the first, the third would be the same as the first and the 4th the same as the 2nd. Giving you a center that is 20x40 and 4 nodes each of 20x10. In further articles I will discuss what I would need to stock an underground bunker and what items I would want in my storage cache for living underground.

Each bedroom would be 10x20 so there would be a good amount of space, the living room and kitchen would be 20x20 which is also very spacious. Between he kitchen and the living room would be a door and or pass-through or it could be completely open to make one large room. Ideally the entry way would be through the storage room and that would be the access point.

If you have any thoughts or ideas I would love to hear them.

How Much Food Should a Prepper Have in Their Doomsday Supplies?

Prepping for a survival situation isn't an exact science. The reasons for someone to start prepping for an emergency situation range from natural disasters like hurricanes, tornadoes and floods to things like solar flares, volcanic eruption or even pandemic disease situations. So with that said there is not just an exact formula for how much of a food supply you should have in your emergency survival stockpile.

Before you try and come up with an amount first you need to choose what sort of situation you are prepping for. If you are prepping for a situation where you might be without power for a number of days then a 72 hour survival kit would probably be fine. If you think that a solar flare may take out the power grid, or an EMP that did the same thing then you'd probably want to go with at least a 1 month food supply or longer.

After you are done reading this go into your kitchen and assess the amount of food you would have if there was no electricity. Your freezer and fridge won't count. You'll have what's in a pantry or cabinets. Now consider what items would need to be cooked to be useful. Although you could have something to cook on in a situation with no electricity, most people don't.

Now that you have done that, how long do you think that amount of food would last your family? Things like canned foods, packaged foods that could be ready to eat and other staples would be about all you would have left. For most people that's not much really.

Now that you have assessed what you would have left you need to think about what you will need. Would dehydrated or freeze dried food be ideal? Or would having extra rice or pasta and items such as that be what you need? There are also items such as survival food bars that can get you through many situations.

All of these thoughts weigh into what survival preparations you make before you are in a situation and it's too late. As a general rule of thumb I would recommend that you have at least a 30 day supply of food on hand. For most situations that's longer than the outage would be so you should be okay. If hyper inflation drove gas prices up there might be a shortage of food but eventually it would work out more than likely. A one month food supply can be bough for around $50 to $100 dollars. It's a small price to pay for having the security of knowing your family will be safe from most disasters.

You can also purchase 3 month, 6 month or 12 month survival rations which would be added insurance should something cause you and your family to go into survival mode.

Hopefully this will help you with your survival planning.

Doomsday Preppers, Bug Out Bags, Survival Food Storage and Hemorrhoid Relief

Doomsday preppers are getting ready for a variety of global disasters with bug out bags, survival food storage, weapons for self-defense and emergency action plans to help them survive if the world plunges into lawless chaos, but many are forgetting to include hemorrhoid relief products in their long-term survival gear stockpile.

It may seem odd on the surface to read an article that combines doomsday prepping, bug out bags, survival food storage and hemorrhoid relief. Combining these topics been on my mind since I've been tuning into the television shows Ancient Aliens, Doomsday Preppers and other programs that cover 2012 and the Mayan Calendar.

What really put water on the topic for it to grow into this article about doomsday survival and hemorrhoid relief came from hanging out at a barbecue last week talking about how we would survive in a disaster situation. The hosts are a married couple I've known for a few years. I knew they liked to be prepared for emergencies, but this year they've become hardcore doomsday preppers.

Socially they are liberal, peace loving and mellow people who live an Ed Begley Jr. environment first type of existence. They grow different food in a nice size organic garden and try to be self-sufficient as possible for living in San Diego, California.

They've been trying to get a small circle of friends that live in the neighborhood to be part of their doomsday prepper community. For Christmas they gave out well stocked bug out bags to us as presents. It was a really thoughtful gift that will last for years to come.

I would not consider myself a hardcore doomsday prepper, but I do keep the bug out bag that I did add hemorrhoid relief products to in the trunk of my car and another bug out bag in the house.

I've also started to take survival food storage more seriously. I now have about two months of emergency food stuffs and water in my house along with an assortment of medicated wipes, creams and ointments that are part of an extensive first aid kit for the house and car.

It's nothing compared to what my friends have. They told me they could last two years off the grid if the world's infrastructure suddenly collapsed because of a disaster or economic meltdown that would leave people fending for themselves.

Once a month they email a group of us updates on what we should have in our survival gear storage supplies and helpful hints on being more self-sufficient. It's easy to forget sometimes this husband and wife are certified public accountants and not full-time survivalists.

Their doomsday prepper monthly newsletter I noticed was missing any treatments if someone gets a hemorrhoidal condition. It could have been because I'm a former hemorrhoid sufferer and write for a blog dedicated to the topic that this stuck out to me like a sore thumb.

Hemorrhoids are a serious health problem and if gone untreated can lead to dangerous infection or worse. In a survival situation during a disaster this anal health issue can be a huge physical obstacle to you fending for yourself. Your movement will be limited and you will be in constant pain.

There will very likely be no hospitals for you to seek medical treatment. You will be on your own to handle the condition. The major contributors to developing internal or external hemorrhoids are stress and constipation which causes unhealthy strain and pressure during bowel movements.

Many doomsday preppers will end up eating a diet that is mostly freeze dried foods, US military rations called MREs (Meals Ready-To-Eat) and plenty of other heavily processed foods. This radical change in diet will most likely lead to digestive and colon health problems like chronic constipation.

A doomsday prepper diet could easily cause painful growths to form inside of the rectum and outside of the anus. Also factor in super high stress levels of the world as you know it turned upside down and next thing you know you feel burning itch, awful pain and bleeding coming from your rectal area.

Lots of people that prep for the end days of society stock up on grain alcohol to use an antiseptic to fight off infection in case someone gets a wound. Alcohol is one of the worse things you can use on hemorrhoids. It will irritate and inflame the anal growths more which make the condition worse.

At the barbecue I told my friends my thoughts and they asked me for a list of products that they should have stored for emergency. Toilet paper is essential for any doomsday prepper emergency stockpile. I learned that quickly when I saw how many rolls of toilet paper they had stored in their garage and a backyard shed.

In my bug out bag and emergency doomsday stockpile I have medicated wipes too. The reason medicated wipes are important is they are compact and help clean hemorrhoids completely reducing risk of infection.

Toilet paper does not clean them as well and often times irritate the delicate damaged skin. Medicated wipes avoid this problem while delivering itch and pain relief in a sanitary way.

Fargelin Plum Flower Pills have natural Chinese herbs that are well-known hemorrhoid remedy. Plum flower has healthy properties that help with digestive and colon health. This natural healer has been used for centuries to help treat and cure this rectal health ailment.

Fargelin Plum Flower Pills are an awesome natural herb formula that quickly, gently and safely assists the body in eliminating painful hemorrhoids. It is a mild extract, non-irritating remedy that is free from dangerous side effects. Fargelin plum flower pills helps with healthy blood circulation and relieves painful inflammation.

Storing tubes of a non-toxic hemorrhoid ointment that has seven kinds of naturally powerful Chinese herbal medicines that can quickly provide proven relief from chronic itching, fiery pain and terrible discomfort is smart. You really don't want to be caught without this type of ointment.

In some cases this Chinese herbal infused ointments have cured hemorrhoids completely. These special Chinese herbal formulas are usually a slightly pink color or grey-yellow, with a pleasing fragrant smell and wonderful cooling properties. The ointments clear away unwanted heat and damaged toxic skin without exposing your skin to harsh chemicals.

It removes the putrid anal skin tissues and stimulates healthy new tissue to grow in its place. This promotes faster healing. It can be used to quickly relieve inflammation pain, reduce anal swelling, shrink piles and heal anal fissures.

Doomsday Preppers on the Rise

I think you'd be surprised how few doomsday preppers there are these days. Most people are extremely short-sighted and think that the coming apocalypse is just hogwash.

To each his own, right?

Anyways, you should be encouraged to know that there are thousands and thousands of us out there. Even though everyone is preparing for something a bit different, I think we all know that any preparation is better than no preparation at all.

Now let's take a look at just a few types of doomsday preppers, shall we?

The Oil Catastrophe Preppers

As you might guess, these are the people getting ready for the world to run out of oil. Some experts say that we won't run out for decades. Others say that we'll be out by 2020, if not before. Either way, it never hurts to get prepared, right?

Some of these doomsday preppers have a getaway car parked fairly close to where they live. When the crap hits the fan, they'll hike or bike to that hidden car and then get out-of-town.

Others have planned on just hunkering down where they live. Seed banks, domestic animals, and hidden stockpiles of gas are what they expect to get them through the hard times.

Financial Meltdown Doomsday Preppers

These are the folks getting ready for either a national or global financial meltdown. Considering that the U.S. is getting deeper into debt every year and the dollar is plummeting, this kind of disaster might occur very soon indeed.

So how are these preppers getting ready? Well if the financial system melts down, we won't have ready access to food, water, oil, animals, clothing- pretty much anything. So the preppers are getting ready by stocking up on a lot of the essentials.

Keep in mind that when it comes to preparing for an apocalypse, the more land you have to raise crops and animals, the better. Even though most humans live in cities, they'll probably regret it when they're fighting each other for supplies after the financial crisis happens.

Nuclear War Doomsday Preppers

This started during the Cold War, but has never really gone out of style. The fear of nuclear war is increasing as Iran is pushing scientists to develop nuclear warheads. Plus, consider that the U.S., Russia, China, and lots of other countries already have nukes. Pretty scary, right?

Unfortunately this is a tougher thing to prepare for than many other scenarios. If there is nuclear fallout, it will be tough for anything to survive for very long. That's why many of these preppers have deep underground shelters. These shelters are stocked with plenty of food and water, as well as ways to get more (such as water filtration systems and lights to grow fruits and veggies).

Alien Invasion Doomsday Preppers

To some of us, this may sound a bit silly. To others, this is the most likely form of disaster we're likely to see in the coming years.

For the most part, it's hard to say how aliens will invade. Will they take over our bodies like Invasion of the Body Snatchers? Do they have HUGE machines that basically laser-zap us into dust like in War of the Worlds?

Since it's hard to say, most of these preppers are doing general preparations- stocking up on food, water, guns, and ammo. Lots of ammo.

So how have these preppers is preparing? Well, if the financial system melts down, we have no ready access to food, water, oil, animals, clothing-rather nothing. The preppers are getting ready by stocking up on a lot of essential elements.

Keep in mind that when it comes to preparing for an Apocalypse, the Earth more do you need to raise crops and animals, the better. Although most humans live in cities, they probably regret when they're fighting each other for supplies, after the financial crisis occurs.

Unfortunately this is a harder thing to prepare for than many other scenarios. If there is a nuclear fallout, it will be difficult for anything to survive for a long time. It is for this reason that many of these have deep dugouts preppers. These shelters are stocked with plenty of food and water, as well as ways to get more (e.g. water filtration systems and lights to grow fruits and vegetables).

Alien Invasion Doomsday Preppers

Doomsday Preppers, bags, Food Storage and survival Hemorrhoids relief Bug

Doomsday preppers are getting ready for a variety of global disasters with bug out survival food storage bags, weapons for self-defense and emergency action plans to help them survive if the world plunges into lawless chaos, but many are forgetting to include hemorrhoid relief products in their long-term survival gear stockpile.

It may seem odd on the surface to read an article that combines doomsday prepping, bug out survival food storage bags, and hemorrhoid relief. Combining these topics been on my mind since I've been tuning into the television shows Ancient Aliens, Doomsday Preppers and other programs that cover 2012 and the Mayan Calendar.

What really put water on the topic for it to grow into this article about doomsday survival and hemorrhoid relief came from hanging out at a BBQ last week talking about how we would survive in a disaster situation. The hosts are a married couple I've known for a few years. I knew they liked to be prepared for emergencies, but this year they've become hardcore doomsday preppers.

Socially they are liberal, peace loving and mellow people who live an Ed Begley Jr. environment first type of existence. They grow different food in a nice size organic garden and try to be self-sufficient as possible for living in San Diego, California.

Doomsday: Preppers As Doomsday Prep?

Many people have seen the show and their Doomsday Preppers always seems to be first question? How to become a prepper of doomsday? Show only asking the question that are already on the right track. Prepper a doomsday is not made overnight, it takes time and effort and usually even money to buy stuff.

Various articles on this site have touched the bases, but this will be a little more advanced.

Before you go out and buy a bunch of gear for that you need to think about what are preparing? I am worried that the Government will not be able to provide for the safety and well-being? I am concerned because you live in an area of the tsunami or hurricane, where it can be without resources for more than a couple of days? Or are you worried powerlines will go down and take weeks or months to get repaired? All of these are good reasons to start preparations to survive today.

As a prepper my hope is that I never need to use the items that I have in my cache prepper. At the same time, although I do not want to be the one to say OMG I can't believe that just happened and don't have the stuff you need to survive in the aftermath of any given survival situation.

So to become a prepper you will want to assess what should be prepared for threats that you that you have faced. If there are nuclear or chemical in nature, a gas mask and iodine pills should be in your survival kit for sure. If you are in a place where a natural disaster is going to be a problem it would be good to keep your mobile and get supplies prepper a well-stocked bug out bag and items like a water bag for your bathtub giving access to clean water.

If you're thinking hyperinflation is going to be a problem then you have a ready supply of food will be the answer. You might be interested in survival bars food can also learn how to sell or buy prepared dehydrated or frozen food. This will allow you to purchase products now that will need in the future and may not be able to get. Having a supply of food for 3 months or 1 year supply of food will give you a lot of confidence when it comes to hyperinflation.

Safety is on the item that must also be taken into account. Most people believe that people are inherently good, but that is only when they are not in the face of adversity as you'd like to see when there are products on the shelves of the shop or when gas is $ 5.00 per gallon. Many people who might be supposed to be polite, it won't be so nice. Having ample security to be able to protect your family and your home is very critical. If you can't afford a gun, maybe a stun gun, or even a baseball bat is better than nothing. But I assume if you have it, and others wanting yours.

So to begin your efforts first of all assess prepping doomsday what you have and what you need. What is the weakest point. Once you have to look at what it takes to improve those areas that are weaker.

Generally includes a cache of survival: food, water, safety items, personal hygiene items, first aid items and survival tools such as a tent, sleeping bags etc.

Good luck and if you have any questions please post a comment below.

How much food should have a Prepper in their supplies Doomsday?

Prepping for a survival situation, it is not an exact science. The reasons for someone to start prepping for a range of emergencies from natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes and floods in things like solar flares, volcanic eruption or even disease pandemic situations. So says there is not only an exact formula for how much of a food supply should have in your emergency stocks of survival.

Before you try and come up with an amount which you must first choose what type of situation are prepping for. If you are prepping for a situation in which it could be without power for a number of days then a survival kit 72 hours would probably be fine. If you think a solar flare can take powerlines, or an EMP that did the same thing then you'd probably want to go with at least one food supply 1 month or more.

After reading this go in the kitchen and assess the amount of food they would if there was no electricity. The freezer and fridge are not counted. You will have what is in a pantry or cupboards. Now consider what elements would need to be cooked to be useful. Although you might have something to cook in a situation without electricity, most people don't.

Now that you've done that, how long do you think that amount of food would last your family? Things like canned foods, packaged foods that might be ready to eat and other staples would be on all that you have left. For most people that is not much really.

Now that you have assessed what would be left you need to think about what you need. Dehydrated or freeze dried should food be ideal? Or having additional, rice or pasta and objects as you have what you need? There are also items such as survival food bars that can be achieved through many situations.

All these thoughts weigh what survival preparations that are before you are in a situation and it is too late. As a general rule I would recommend having at least a 30 days supply of food on hand. For most situations that is longer than the disruption would be so should be okay. If inflation has pushed gas prices up there could be a shortage of food, but in the end it would work more than likely. A one-month food supply can be Bough for about $ 50 to $ 100 dollars. It is a small price to pay to have the security of knowing your family will be safe from most disasters.

You can also purchase 3 months, 6 or 12 month survival rations that would have added insurance should something cause you and your family access to survival mode.

Hopefully this will help you with your planning for survival.

At http://www.doomsday-preppers.com you will find a wide range of products of survival for everyone from urban survival for the hard core emergency prepper. We have gas masks, survival food and much more available. There are also many articles related to survive.

Living Underground in a Doomsday Bunker / Shipping Container

As an avid prepper I long ago converted my wife into like thinking. She's as much of a prepper as I am now and in some cases even more so. When it comes to a doomsday bunker that's where we part ways. She has her mind set on not being able to live in a "coffin" as she calls it. Ideally I'd like to bury a couple of shipping containers that are built specifically for living in. I would be content with the top of the containers being maybe a foot up above ground level and letting a dirt berm or shrubs block the visibility.

My ideal shelter would have quite a few windows in that exposed area so you wouldn't get that feeling of being buried. Even with that said she still doesn't think she could live in it. I asked how that's different than being in a basement with windows and she said it would feel more confined. With nearly 400 square feet of living space a shipping container would work very well and give ample room. If you had several of them there would be even more space.

So one of the big items to address if you are looking to turn a shipping container into an underground house is how it will be received by your family members. I obviously didn't take the time to properly discuss it with her so she'd understand the details of living in a shipping container. I think had I taken time to talk more about things I'd do to make it a liveable doomsday bunker I'd have a much smaller hill to climb right now.

So assuming that I get past that I have started thinking about the ideal configuration for an underground bunker built from a steel shipping container. I think using 4 containers together would make for an ideal configuration. The goal would be to make living areas for 4-6 people.

With 4 of these you would have nearly 1,600 square feet of underground bunker space and 2 large living areas and 4 smaller areas. One large living area I would dedicate to a kitchen, food storage etc. The other large living area would be dedicated to a more family or group oriented room where similar to what a living room is now.

The 4 smaller rooms would probably amount to 2 or 3 bedrooms and one bonus room for storage and all the other stuff one would need to live underground for a longer period of time. With limited space it would need to be well organized but certainly a 1,600 sq foot bunker would work well.

The layout would be 4 of these staggered back and forth with a 50% overlap. The 2nds would start halfway up the first, the third would be the same as the first and the 4th the same as the 2nd. Giving you a center that is 20x40 and 4 nodes each of 20x10. In further articles I will discuss what I would need to stock an underground bunker and what items I would want in my storage cache for living underground.

Each bedroom would be 10x20 so there would be a good amount of space, the living room and kitchen would be 20x20 which is also very spacious. Between he kitchen and the living room would be a door and or pass-through or it could be completely open to make one large room. Ideally the entry way would be through the storage room and that would be the access point.

If you have any thoughts or ideas I would love to hear them.

At http://www.doomsday-bunkers.net we have information on how to construct your own bunkers, where to buy bunkers, information on living in a bunker and supplies you might need and much more
