Cabin fever is an affliction that was added in the 'Tireless Menace' update.

Causes

Cabin fever is only dangerous when having spent most of six days inside a building. There is a 25-50 day grace period where this cannot happen, as this would only become an apparent problem long after having survived for a long time.

In Interloper difficulty, you can start developing Cabin Fever after the first 10 days.

Symptoms

The only symptom of cabin fever is that the player cannot rest inside for 24 hours.

Treatment

To treat cabin fever, the player must spend time outside until it goes away and cannot sleep inside for 24 hours.

  • If you need sleep just use a Snow Shelter. You can build it for 15 sticks and 5 cloth.
  • Additionally, sleeping inside of a Vehicle will also help treat Cabin Fever due to not being counted as "indoors".
  • Also, if you use a Sleeping Bag inside of an enclosed place, such as, a Fishing Hut with or without a door on it, then it counts as sleeping outside and not "indoors." (An exception here is the enclosed back porch of the Farmstead in Pleasant Valley, which counts as indoors for the purpose of Cabin Fever.)
