I'm simply going to answer the question and say that, yes, I have been homeless. Twice, both times as an adult. I never ventured into a shelter or soup kitchen, I was able to feed myself, but bathing did become a difficult venture at times. Fortunately I was homeless in San Diego, it was easy to get to a beach like Imperial and use the open public showers. Cold, but easy.
Try getting a job without a shower or an address, though.
I know that beach well... I lived on it (in some apartments). The only really affordable beach to live in in SD. You could see the bull fighting ring and helicopters were always in the air. Viva San Diego. You were not along being homeless there. You can go some places and see people sleeping all over the place in the open
huhI understand we have a member here that can take one sniff of you and determine if you've ever been homeless in life.......
The only time I was ever randomly attacked was by a mentally ill homeless man in El Cajon. At the market. Some teenagers who were waiting in in a van for their mom who was shopping stopped him. He thought I was someone he must have known and he was REALLY fucking pissed at her, just insanely pissed off
I had a friend who lived in one of those condos, down at the very end of IB, you know where I mean? Across from the reserve. You can see the shacks in Mexico across the reserve from his place. Well, you *could*. He passed away some 10 years ago now, liver transplantee who let himself go into rejection. Rest in peace John Verdugo. I never knew the old you, the 'bad' you, I only knew YOU and I loved you.
You know where I'm talking about, right? Down past where they hold the sandcastle building contest every July or August?
But, given a choice which would you prefer--IB or OB? I always liked OB a lot. IB wasn't bad, but MAN is it populated with a ton of tweakers!
huh
Lx
good luck man I hope things work out for ya...stay strongI'm about to be homeless next month and it really, really sucks!
I've been trying everything to stop it but I just cannot get a friggin job!
(I have a rent controlled apt in SF and run two 400 watts here in my studio)
Been trying to get on my feet since losing my job in 2008 but not a single place will give me a break. I have applied and applied to every kind of job-it makes no sense to me at all!
I can only pay half my rent in Jan-my birthday month-so I'll start getting the eviction stuff pretty quick.
I don't know a soul here so it makes it harder.
Really frustrating and high anxiety at all times!
