The survivors of the first winter after landing the Mayflower faced extreme challenges, including harsh weather conditions, limited supplies, and unfamiliar terrain. Many were unprepared for the severe winter and lacked adequate food, leading to malnutrition and disease. Additionally, the psychological toll of isolation and the loss of loved ones compounded their despair, making survival seem increasingly uncertain. This combination of physical hardship and emotional strain contributed to their feelings of desperation.
