It's easy to understand how, having mental illness but then being homeless, must be so hard. Then I started thinking about people like Ghandi and Mother Theresa - how they lived in poverty and saw the wrath of sickness and poverty - yet they lived in peace.
So I hope that until things change for you - that you can find your own peace within yourself among the chaos. At the moment I can't say I feel whole due to my marriage - this shattered me to pieces but I'm still standing. I think the closest I ever came to feeling whole, is when I had my girls - a clean slate. When you think of how a fetus grows and a new life is created, it's so magnificent.
BTW can social services find you some low cost housing?

Thanks for the kind words Lynn. Although I really would't compare my plight with Ghandi or Mother Theresa (lol), I do try to keep as optimistic as possible. I am working with the local housing agencies and have an appointment on the 5th of August, I'll keep you posted on the outcom. Till then, best wishes.
