โIf you are just starting out with nowhere to sleep, I will not pretend it is fine. It is not. Your phone is your lifeline. Keep it charged. Find the places that give free meals. Learn their times. Be polite, even when you are exhausted. A hostel bed is not the Ritz but it is a door you can lock. Do not give up on the clinic. The line is long but it is a line forward. Some days you will want to quit. Just get through the next hour. That is all.โ
โDear stranger, i was in the same place eighteen months ago. My phone is my lifeline. That was my life. Last weekend I went to a friend's birthday and stayed till the end. You get yourself back in pieces.โ
โIf you're scared right now, I get it. I was right where you are about three years ago. Back then it was sleeping in my car. I wake up most days without that dread. It's slow, but it does come back.โ
โA note for the next person. I was where you are in 2022. I remember when my phone is my lifeline, like it was yesterday. My kids say I'm back. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. Praying for you.โ
