Guest guest Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 Hi Marie DONT GIVE UP......peroid. Even if it doesnt seem like it, you are making headway. Ive only been to one shelter in my life. They stuck my in a room of bunkbeds, with about 30 other guys. The cops forced me there or jail, and I lasted about an hour. The stink, the snores, there was no fresh air to breath, I could feel the bugs crawling on me. It was worse than any jail, I imagine. Even though it was winter and cold out, I sneaked outside and ran away. I found a bridge fulla trash and slept there under cardboard boxes instead of blankets. For ladies, I imagine its a bit different. Granted single ladies might dorm up, but ladies with children possibly have a room of their own. I dont know what they would do with someone in your situation, who is on meds like clockwork. Big cities are different than small citys too. I would suggest that you stay put in your own home for now, if you can. Keep making calls to find out what is available closer to SF. I wish you were here, you could have my tiny bedroom. I sleep in the livingroom. At least you would have your own space, and someone to look out for your wellbeing. But...wish in one hand, and poop in the other...so they say. Marie, I know your suffering, worried, and just about at the end of your ropes. You have had a mighty hard time of it, and it breaks my heart. BUT You have shown us all that your one tough cookie too. Keep making calls. Bug the same people every day. Call every lead you get, and then call them repeatedly. A door will open for you, even though sometimes we have to beat that door down. This is the fight of your life, and one you will never forget. Your going through it because the things you learn, you will be cable to council others. You will be in a good position to save lives Marie. There is a good reason why we go through what we go through, even if we cannot see it at the time. I am blasting you with everything good that I can think of. I have been since you joined the group, and wont stop until your back on easy street where you belong. Oh yeah........... One more thing I have learned is that the mental health people/clinics help people. Start calling some of them. You dont have to be crazy to have them help you. love don in ks From: Rain Beau <annamariestitt@...>Subject: [ ] Just confused cont" " < >Date: Sunday, October 17, 2010, 10:23 AM So the shelters in sf can only tell me what is available that day & its 1st come 1st serve i was thinkin of taking a leap of faith & just jumping on the bus with as much as i can carry & have faith that room will be available when i show up...sucks cause anemia has set in so i am weaker & short of breathe quicker i was a gymnistBlessed be marie---------Sent from AT & T's Wireless network using Mobile Email------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
