I did it again. Friday night the isolation got to me and I walked to downtown Athens to go to the No Where Bar and shoot pool. I drank too much. When I left the bar I walked to the Holiday Inn to rent a room but they were full. So I tried to walk back home and got a public intoxication charge.

My court date is on May 1. My lease is up at the end of May and I planned on going back to Lake City, Florida and put myself back in the Jenkins' Veterans Domiciliary. Now I do not know what will happen. If the Judge gives me jail time or probation I will end up homeless. I am scared!!

My sister has given me the name of a lawyer but I do not know if he will help me. Lawyers have very busy schedules and my court date is only a month away. I always self-destruct when the mental health issues get too severe.

I wanted to go back to Lake City six months ago but I was stuck in a years lease.
