That's what I would do. Head to a water source try to find people who figured it out. They'd either have died and I could use their resources or they'd kill me or accept me. That threads the needle from the I don't want to live no mo' if I can't get Hot Now Krispy Kreme donuts and the Rmbo survival at any cost dudes.
Nggas really think they gon be following the river banks west to the survivor’s colony

Good thread.
"Food aside" is a pretty big aside.
You say you'll be completely self-sufficient for months, but how are you protecting yourself when you sleep? No one is self-sufficient if they have no shelter and absolutely anyone could just walk up to you in your nap and slide a blade in whenever they wanted.
Even when you're awake what is you and the one gun you can use at a time going to do for you against any band of guys who wants to steal your shyt? Hell, they don't even have to be better armed than you, they just have to set a trap in a place you'll look for food, or follow you until you're forced to let your guard down.
A single water bottle assumes regular access to clean enough water. Even with a filter/tablets, there's gonna be water sources in the city that you ain't willing to drink from due to pollutants, and lots of places in the countryside where you'll travel a long ways and expend a ton of energy before you find another source of water again. Plus the less water you're able to carry, the more often you have to expose yourself when shyt gets tight. And you know the ruffians are gonna be waiting by those water sources (and food sources).
Your rain protection looks minimal. Day or night, a serious storm has a good chance of soaking that sleeping bag unless you have a means of getting indoors. And you'll soon fine a thermal blanket is pretty meh on a cold night.
No antibiotics either? Of course, antibiotics degrade rapidly, so having them in a bug-out bag is a dicey proposition. You're basically just subsidizing big pharma if you keep sneaking prescription antibiotics from a doctor only to have to replace them again and again. But infection due to injury, infection due to bad water, infection due to bad food, who knows what kinda shyt the mosquitoes are gonna be carrying when society breaks down and control efforts stop....

Life is absurd. Lean into it.
Well, under these circumstances no one could be self-sufficient. Yes, if a monsoon, blizzard, heatwave, 3 or more stooges roll up on me, or my sometimes avoidant personality gets to me, I'm fukked.
Yeah dont let perfect be the enemy of the good.

People are thinking of full on Mad Max situations people need to think of a fire or flood

Yeah, you can't prepare for everything and truth be told, if society completely collapsed not sure if I want to be around for that.
If I have to bug out for a few weeks because a hurricane takes the power grid down, my condo burns down, or civil unrest pops off for a few weeks I generally can hold my own.
