New Here
I'm new here and was just reading a bunch of posts to see if they'd help. I have ptsd :( and no i dont have a therapist i currently have no medical insurance and no job and no money and about to be homeless. I don't actually use forums.... ever... but this one seemed like a good idea.
 
Hello llid, I've found this website and the people on it really supportive. I think you've made a good move posting here - I found when things go wrong this place is always open. Take care.
 
Hi llid,

Welcome to the PTSD Forum. This is a great place for information and support as you heal. I have no words, other than I am sorry to hear about your present circumstances.

Take care of yourself as best you can.

I'm so sorry you are struggling! I know it seems impossible right now, just don't give up! I pray you will be blessed with strength and courage during this painful journey, and that there are some special people out there that will help. Maybe you haven't even met them yet!
It good to reach out!:)
 
What country do you live in? Are you aware of the services available to a low income person? Food benefits, housing, medical, therapy, these are all things you should be acting on because things get a lot harder when you don't have easy access to a computer or phone. Often times people are only homeless because they are unaware of the services they can apply for or they become accepting of their fate as it is. But it takes time, if you know you are about to be in a bad way you should be preparing as best as you can so that you are not homeless, without food, shoes, ect. You might even have to travel to a more middle sized city, not too populated where services are tapped out but not too small to where there would not be any services available. Try to apply for something like section 8 housing, you can increase your chance of placement also if you are willing to relocate.

It takes work but anything is better than sleeping in parks, eating food stolen from stores, bathing in taco bell bathrooms, and just overall being concerned about where the next meal will come from or your access to water. I only spent 3 weeks doing that for a reason! Because it's a terrible way to live.
 
I live in the states in Nevada. I live in a pretty decent sized city.

I tried applying for things but I have to get a Nevada ID and I dont have one and I can't seem to get through the line at the dmv and I don't have the money to get one anyways.

I would love to relocate to the only place I have a person who helps me, but theres just no way I can get there.
 
Hi, llid
Welcome :D

I can't really help you on this but all I can say is don't give up! try to get there =X tbh I envy you to have someone to help you =) don't give up you can do it ! gogo XD all the best to you llid
 
llid, welcome to the forum. I wish there was something that I could do to help you, as I too had a very hard financial period to go through. I'm so sorry to hear that you are having so many supplementary problems on top of PTSD. Keep coming on here so that you can at least get some support and you will be able to vent out what you are going through and what you are feeling.
