Considering what passes as independent and intelligent among American women you probably wouldn't be in a situation any worse than the rest of us.
-------------------- "And we, inhabitants of the great coral of the Cosmos, believe the atom (which still we cannot see) to be full matter, whereas, it too, like everything else, is but an embroidery of voids in the Void, and we give the name of being, dense and even eternal, to that dance of inconsistencies, that infinite extension that is identified with absolute Nothingness and that spins from its own non-being the illusion of everything."

Society will never accept you because you need money, and things, and power in order to be successful and live a fulfilling life right?

a kid in one of my classes knows a fella that's a retired army ranger that lives in the jungle of hawaii. He basically built a hut near a cliff with a view of the ocean. He's away from civilization but has running water and that's all he pays for... He piped some pvc from a local's water supply and pays him every month. Aside from that he's essentially free.

I think you should try if if you think you'd like it. It's really hard to feed yourself and shelter yourself with no help. It would definitely be an experience, whether it worked out or not.
In any case, read Walden by Henry David Thoreau. It will either inspire or discourage you.
-------------------- Welcome evermore to gods and men is the self-helping man. For him all doors are flung wide: him all tongues greet, all honors crown, all eyes follow with desire. Our love goes out to him and embraces him, because he did not need it. ~ R.W. Emerson, "Self-Reliance"

Even better, pick up a "hobby" in order to exact your revenge upon the society that has shunned you into an existence deep in the woods. ALA Theodore Kazinsky.
Good fun.

QFT
I don't know if eating "shrubs" would really be a good idea.
Besides, think a good long while about exactly how "free" you want to be. You'd not only be free of society, but free of culture. No art, no books, no updates on science, the world's religions, etc. No music. I'm also interested in a somewhat solitary life, but I would never want to completely disconnect from the outside world. It would be maddening - plus - some people are ok.

I did, actually. During the summer months. I would have kept going, but the winters would just be too unbearable for me.
It was an experience that words can hardly conjure up. I say give it a go
