To make sure I have a plan for the 2 most likely outcomes in my situation, I am also considering what would happen if I got evicted and couldn't find a place (became homeless).
(I skipped the explanation for why this might be a possiblity. Trust me, it's a possibility. But that's not what I want to discuss in this thread.) What I want to know is what is the most difficult part of being homeless in Boston? Is it finding a shower? What's wrong with the showers at shelters? Is it finding clean clothes or doing laundry? Is it being bullied by other people who are homeless, in shelters, or just sick people? (I also skipped the part about how this would, or wouldn't, work with my medical conditions. And, yes, that's a real problem, but also not the question I have for the forum. I would rather stay focused on the questions in this post and in the subject line.) |

Are you a vet?
At my Dbsa group there's a guy who volunteers and says they have lockers. Showers. Free lunch. Boston is most likely like other cities. Homeless are faced w harassment. Theft. Disease. Hunger. Thirst. But some who live in poverty say it's easier to get help when homeless. Agencies have funding. Churches give out food and clothing. I would rather live in a warm climate than back east. Staying warm would be just one more thing to worry about in winter. __________________  Bipolar 1Day Vraylar 3 mg. Wellbutrin 150 Night meds Temazepam 30 mg or lorazepam Hasn't helped yet.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
