I've been sitting here since 1 waiting to be placed, waiting for clearances and now waiting for paperwork to arrive, I'm done tired and just want the process to be done for the day.

Did you find a placement Dicer? Hoping things are looking up and that you are safe and warm.

I just had a look at his gofundme and someone donated $300 a few hours ago so hopefully that will help Dicer out a little.

I read all the posts just wanted to send good thoughts and know that this community has you on their mind wishing you the best I have never been in your situation but I know people who did live in their cars for a short time things will get better

That sucks, Dicer. It's just a speed bump, no big deal.

How's the housing sit?

Looking into stuff today, I have my therapist and I'm at the place where I have an advocate for the short term...

Damn, so sorry to hear that! Was it locked or with any kind of built in security? I hate thieves so much.

It's locked, and I have the find my device rolling so as soon as hits wifi I'll be able to wipe it. Just frustrated.

huh I have an apartment in Westfield Ma

My mom told me the ymca has small one beds for the homeless
I was in Westfield before my breakdown, at the Samaritan inn, and say because I'm not a substance abuser my options are more limited which doesn't make sense to me.

Going to talk to my therapist in about a half hour and figure out my next step from there...

Don't feel bad at all about crying. There's nothing wrong with crying.
I mean, it obviously sucks to be in a situation where one feels like crying. But, the crying itself, definitely don't feel bad about that at all.

Glad MattB's able to help you with the tablet, that's great :) Since, yeah, trying to do everything on a small phone screen is really hard on one's eyes.

Happy to hear you finally got a bed Dicer
Its hard, I know as I had a good friend I grew up with go thru something similar for 2 years before he got back on his feet a bit.
Its not easy for him even today but you do start to focus and be grateful for the little things.

Try not to over internalize your own situation too much.
Know that this too will pass, no matter how much it seems like its a new permanence.
its not.

Slept like ass last night but that is nothing new, going to talk to the med provider in a few minutes and pretty much demand something hardcore for sleep, my sanity depends on it. Otherwise I'm back in familiar territory and the workers are super supportive. We will see how things go from here...

Well last night I got put into the ER again, chest stuff that thankfully turned out negative. I've been trying to make calls but with it being a holiday week, I've had limited success...the last thing I want is to go back to a shelter, they are not good for my mental health, at all.

Otherwise I'm hanging in, finally slept last night between stress and up in my meds I was dead to the world lol

Yeah, holidays are a pain time to make calls, what with places having short hours, closing, etc.
Glad your chest stuff turned out negative, the last thing you need is more blood clots.
Hopefully you can stay in the hospital for a bit?...
Take care of yourself...
