Thanks, likewater.
Sadly, I think he has doubts too. He called me yesterday when I was at work. He's afraid no one will rent to him. He's afraid he won't be able to find a good place. He's afraid he'll get isolated. etc., etc., etc.
I feel bad adding my worries to his.
He does have contingency plans, though. He wants to find a second job in case the first one doesn't work out.
I got a chance to ask him cyber's question about why he's in such a hurry. He doesn't know.
I talked to him about the time he moved from transitional mental health housing to that apartment in October 2009. He was in such a rush and so excited. And it went so badly, so quickly. He grabbed the first apartment he could find. I didn't go look at it with him. I sent my mom. After the mhc called me and told me he'd disappeared, I went to his apartment to see if I could find him. It was my first time in the building and the apartment (he'd left his door unlocked). The building had really weird accoustics. Lots of disembodied voices and doors slamming. I would think that it would be awful for someone who was hallucinating. If I'd seen the place, I would have tried to talk him out of it. Might not have succeeded, though. He was hellbent on moving out of mental health housing.
