People go outdoors because it's fun, anon. If you just put down "Into the Wild" and think you'll learn some valuable lesson in nature after reading about Chris McCandless, you're in for a bad time. You'll spend maybe a day or two, then spend the last day wandering out of wherever you got yourself lost.
You're clearly a victim of extreme comfort and a culture of crybabies and social justice warriors, of which you aren't escaping by falling for the "spiritual quest" meme literally all of those people do.
Despite your hatred of the McDonalds uniform (understandable), it's ironically the most manly thing about this post. Running away from your cushy college life because you can't focus your attention for a semester to get good marks is something a woman would do. The unwritten duty #1 of being a man is providing. I'm sure another man (likely your dad, who you may or may not talk to) is the one paying for your tuition and financial flexibility so you can go blow your $2,000 on camping supplies without it seriously affecting you, should you come back in one piece.
My advice to you is to listen to the rational people in this thread and get a fucking hold of yourself. I know it's much easier to hide the posts you disagree with (like this one) and consider the posts you agree with more, but just trust me.
If you want to "be a man" finish college with a real degree, get a good job and apply yourself, and work on yourself through good habits and pleasure abstinence. That's what every scholar, stoic, and deep thinker has written about, in essence, since the beginning of time. Literally running from your problems is not living up to your potential and becoming the best man you possibly can be.
