Please help me escape homelessness
Hi everyone my name is Dennis and for the last 2.5 months I’ve been homeless/couch hopping. I ended up in this position because I went to Ghana for education purposes. My living situation and experience was horrible and I told my parents I just want to come back to the States and continue my education there, in which they said no. A week after that conversation I got a plane ticket and left, my parents found out I left and cut me off. When i came back in February this year I tried getting my stuff from home and it got to the point where I needed to ask the police for help.
I had everything at home, my pc, cosplays, Xbox, clothes, social security, etc. They cleared my room and told officers I had everything which I did not. The cops couldn’t really do much because my dad said I can’t enter and they were only there to keep the peace. I decided to just take my L and figure out my life now.
I have a job now after a month of relentless applying, I have my car, I have ebt and medi-cal. I live in California and everything is ridiculously expensive, I don’t really get much hours but I’ve been picking up lots of shifts. I have 3 associates degrees and was on the way to working on a bachelors when my life turned to the worst. My friends and church have helped me alot but I’m slowly starting to use up all my favors. My girlfriend helps me now and then, but she also has a busy life.
I would appreciate any help I can get and can answer any questions. The money raised would be used for housing purposes and gas. Any help would be greatly appreciated even if it’s a good luck :)
