If you're looking for food options, dumster dive 7/11, donut shops and what not. Also ask cook staff at resturants(like when they step out back to smoke) if they have any food they're throwing away and if so see if they'll put it in a to go box. Just tell them you're homeless and need some grub. Be polite and appreciative but don't over burden people or demand assistance.

If you think you may qualify for SSI/SSD or unsure, check it out. If you already have limited income coming in on a regular basis you should be able to find income based housing. Food banks are good once you have some sort of housing but about worthless while you're traversing the streets.

Keep a positive attitude some how, cause when you're rolling your shit down the sidewalk saying this couldn't get any worse; wheels start falling off. :D

Are there summer vacation cabins in your area up north?

I hate to suggest it, but you might want to break into a cabin and crash. Take care of the place and leave a nice note. It's better than dying from the north UK cold.

Fuck i feel for you. Id be pretty negativo in your situation. You on the other hand seem pretty resilient. Keep it up... best wishes in the new year. Christmas is past. If it makes you feel any better i had the worst christmas of my whole life this year. Guess theres gotta be 1 bad one sooner or later.

Get your plan together.... hope you get lucky somehow.... life is full of ups and downs... i was at my bottom.... on my way back up.... do the same...

Hey Icmag what would you do if you were homeless at Xmas.

Long story short.me & my partner of 25 years are splitting up.

yeah, if you are wondering at all about your ex, keep her out of the loop growing wise. Telling no one would be ideal. Check out ZZtops thread on T5 growing, he gets some nice plants from using flourescent lights.
