I have to leave apartment after failed 13 year relationship. I am self employed pet sitter currently. I hold osha 10 and Comptia A+ certifications. I have 15 years work experience in food and customer service industries but no college degree so jobs = no progress forward unless you stay at fast food job and become management. Not what I see for self and personal future. I have high anxiety and stress induces very quickly so the traditional shelter route here is not an option for me quite frankly, it’s too dangerous and ghetto. Unfortunately I don’t earn 40x typical rent even though I can make rent guaranteed every month @ anything between 600-900 easily I can’t get my own from that because of the requirements now. Anybody have any non profits or orgs that work with recently homeless working individuals? I have a car but unless someone knows a place where I can safely park up nightly to comfortably sleep from now until winter comes I don’t think living out of that is feasible also I have a child who I’d want to continuously see every day as to not change their life because it didn’t work out with their parent after 13 years. Please just advice I can’t really deal with much else right now.
Hello i am Jack. I am 21 and im from Connecticut. I have been homeless for now four months. Ive been calling homeless left and right and everyday for pass four months and they keep telling me that they are full or arent taking people rn. They told me i would have to wait a year or couple months to find a place or shelter to go to. Ive called 211 so many times and they tell me the same thing. That i gotta wait and then make appointments for me and then they dont call me and call them back and they just oh and hanged up. Can someone help me out please? I will take anything please
For some context in my situation, I moved from PA to OK when my friend from high school asked me to. Yesterday, she told me I need to find somewhere else bc her and her fiance are moving in with his sick grandma to take care of her and can't take me with them. I have been here a month and can't find a job as I currently live in a very small town with very little opportunities. I just want some advice on different cities and states (preferably more north as I do not fair well in the heat) that could be a better situation for me. Or really anything I can do to make my situation better. Thank you in advance.
Best day to leave for train hopping?
So what is the best day to leave for train hopping?
I am planning to try to leave sometime next week. Whenever it’s warm out again as today it was very cloudy as if it’s going to rain. So I obviously can’t leave today or I would be stuck and would have to go back.
I plan to camp out for as long as I can. It’s about a 29 minutes walk to the train tracks where I am. That was the only place with some stopped carts that I saw a few months ago. So I am sure and most positive that there should be some more this coming week.
When are the trains most active? How do I know when to get on? I only know when to wait for the security guards to check everything first and then to hop on. I also did notice that the freight trains here don’t even leave until night fall most of the time. I’ve been keeping track lately and they do leave at around 10:30-11:30pm at night.
I just want to get out of here ASAP!!
Edit:
Hoping to end up in the Midwest or the south! I’d be happier with either one.
Hi there, I need some advice I lost my job a while ago and my saving ran out I can't afford rent and have to leave my home tomorrow with nowhere to go and no plan I have about R1000 and my laptop that I might sell or pawn.
My questions are
Where can I go that is safe until I find a job and what must I do just walk the streets till I get deleted or delete form starvation?
I'm really scared and feel super alone any advice PLZ.
I just had the wake up call of my life I was going to be homeless cause I was tired of having to keep up with bills…as I was talking to some homeless people on where might be a good place to sleep if I ever was homeless…one of the fellas kept talking about rape at first it wasn’t od he kept saying watch out for a guy name Mike…fast forward he’s chasing me down the street telling me he’s going to rape me…ended up calling the cops…idc what beef you have with your family idc if you feel like your being treated like a wage slave…keep your loved ones close and before you think about being homeless plz do everything you can to not be don’t do it…I’m tough as nails I can def handle it but I’m def not going to…stay away from all that as best as you can and plz if you ever are going to be homeless find people in this group and stick together
Edit: unless you are any age from 15-24 and you need to escape abuse I don’t want this to scare you from leaving that situation there is help for young people that didn’t get a chance at life there’s also job corps as scary as people say things are don’t worry there is programs like grants that’ll pay for schooling also the Latter Day Saint church may help you as well aka the Mormons in Utah I’m not lds but there’s options in life, much love
I injured my knee and can’t work. I do gig work and finally landed a job that I would have started last week but I feel on concrete and injured my knee. I thought that it would have healed after a week but it is still sore and tender. So I can’t drive to do deliveries or grocery shop for gig work. The job is a lot of standing so I can’t start. My rent is due. Catholic Charities was out of funds and I am awaiting to hear from others. Just need some advice or resources. If I don’t work I don’t get paid. My fear is loosing housing. I can go without food. I’m so stressed. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
I am in housing court for a year now and I am depressed.i feel like I’m about to be homeless.Don’t judge me on my disability,please.
I (22F) of NC, am in dire need of some assistance. I lost my Job on 06/21. I have applied for unemployment but my former boss is taking forever to respond to the claim. I thought they only had 10 days, but I guess not. I have a job lined up, but they won’t stay me until the week of 7/13. Rent ($1480 but they’re willing to take $975 for now) is due tomorrow by 3pm, Car payment ($280) is due tomorrow. I’m slowing starting to drown, and I cant get any help. My car payment is a private contract, and if it’s late, my car will be taken.
I don’t post ever, but I have exhausted all of my options. Local ministries have no funds available, I don’t have family around, and I am completely alone in this. I just want to give my little boy the life he deserves but I’m failing royally and I don’t know what to do. If anyone could give me advice, I would appreciate it more than anything.
I am facing an impending breakup, due to treated but not improving mental health and MS concerns regarding the financial concerns of instability of being sick in the US, and worsening mental health in general. Resulting with me being unable to financially provide for myself. My car seems like the next best viable option, I am increasing growing intolerant to the heat. What are the best tips and tricks you guys may have? I am not asking for financial donation just tips, tricks, and potential resources.

I really want to leave this hell hole of a house and my parents and my brother. I feel like I will die or get mad if I live anymore in this house. They have been bullying and harassing me since childhood that made me even attempt suicide. My brother tried to sexually assault me few times too . It's constant pulling me down , making me feel bad and unworthy every day. I just can't take it anymore I have reached my end limit .
I really want to go somewhere else but idk how to start and what to do.
Does anyone know of any temporary housing options in the Arlington-GP-Mansfield area that provides temporary housing for a family with 3 kids?
Yesterday, I came into contact with a contractor when I was searching for landscaping services. He told me that he landed on hard times after experiencing medical complications that forced him to stop working for a period of time. During this time, he lost most of his customers. He's just trying his best to work and provide food and shelter to his family.
He's been renting a room out of a local motel and does not have the money for another night. All of the resources and locations are closed due to it being July 4th and the weekend and I'm just trying my best to help him given his situation.
I have been on the most interesting and difficult journey of my life... It's a long story. Definitely sad now, but I'm praying for an outcome that surpasses all negativity and surprises all who have ever doubted us!
I have to vent and need someone to talk to.
Everything was going great, my faith in god was stronger than ever, i felt happier, i have been coming out of being homeless, finally got in a good shelter they got me a job, i got a bike. I went through what I precieved as God's biggest spiritual journey and test of faith for 6 months, losing my best and only friend in the world horribly and going into deep depression, losing everything and living under a rock (literally) with one pair of tore up clothes and duct taped shoes going days at a time with no food and having no care to try to get any, To finally being able to feel a small amount of actual self worth again and have an outfit for each day of the week and a purpose in life again. I gave myself to God and he saved me when I knew I had no hope left. It was a miracle and I praise and thank God every day for giving me another chance.
But out of nowhere about a month ago my hours got unexpectedly cut in half cause the summer kids are working, which i get that. But then suddenly last week the shelter is kicking me out because I've been there for a while and in summer more people need beds which i also totally agree but they could have warned me or gave time.. That same day I leave the shelter an hour later im using the bathroom on my way to walmart to buy a tent and my bike gets stolen within 2-3 minutes.. just gone.. nobody in sight. So i walk to walmart and I get myself a tent to set up at the state park and while i am showering at the park after walking for 4 hours with all my things and a tent and get set up, my bag gets stolen out of my tent with my wallet cards id money everything that i just finally got and went through so much to get after starting over with nothing at all.
Im absolutely devistated. Its 105degree heat index here, i walked to work the last two days, leaving at 4am after getting up at 3am to pack my tent up cause i dont want to lose my home as well. I get off walk to the state park cause idk where else to go now, set up, by then it's 10pm and I have to sleep.
I have been praying non stop. I dont know why this is happening to me again i have been doing so well. I dont know what to do anymore, I haven't eaten in 2 days besides a bag of chips a co worker gave me. I reapplied for food stamps this week since my hours for cut at work but I have to get new card now and tomorrow is holiday and it will take at least 10 days before it's here and i dont get paid until next Friday. So within about a week and a half I am back to having nothing. Ive been trying to keep my head up but its starting to hit me hard now because im off the next two days and im off early today but i have no one so I will be celebrating the 4th alone in my tent starving and it's really sinking in how bad I am screwed right now.
So if anyone wants to talk please talk to me because I dont have anyone besides god to talk to and he doesnt seem to be answering me as of lately but i really dont want to be in my own head alone right now. Also hoping yall can help me keep my mind occupied and off my dang stomach. I know alot of you know what I mean
My identity is being used in real-estate/financial records, and police keep dismissing it as mental health instead of reviewing the documents. What can I do?
I’m posting because I need practical advice on how to get identity theft, real-estate/financial fraud, and abuse properly documented when agencies keep dismissing my reports because of my mental-health history.
My identity has been used in connection with records and transactions I did not authorize. I started pulling public records myself — county recorder documents, deeds, property records, names, addresses, and related documents — and I found repeated patterns involving my name, altered versions of my name, and family members’ names connected to real-estate activity. This is not just a “feeling.” I am working from public records and documents.
I also have a serious mental-health history, including hospitalizations and periods where I was unstable, paranoid, or suicidal. That history is now being used to discredit me whenever I try to report the identity theft and fraud. Instead of reviewing the documents, agencies keep treating the entire issue as a mental-health problem.
The situation became worse after my father filed police/court paperwork against me that I dispute as false. A restraining order was granted, including a move-out order, and I became homeless from December until February. Around the same time, the family home was sold. The timing of that sale lined up with when I was moved into an apartment under circumstances that now raise serious concerns. I paid $1,200 believing it was for prorated rent, but later it appeared to be treated as a deposit.
I have also reported repeated episodes where I experienced symptoms consistent with being drugged or exposed to something: confusion, paranoia, loss of reality testing, disability, and inability to care for myself. When I reported feeling drugged or unsafe, police did not take it seriously. My concern is that my family contacted police before or during these reports and framed me as mentally ill so the reports would be dismissed.
That creates an impossible loop:
I report identity theft, fraud, drugging, or abuse.
My family frames it as mental health.
Police rely on that framing instead of reviewing the records.
No investigation happens.
Then the lack of investigation is used to make it look like nothing happened.
I am not asking Reddit to diagnose me or decide the whole case. I am asking how to force a records-based review.
What I need advice on:
Hi I'm Ame, well some people call me Mei but whatever, recently went homeless, i was a girl in my moms eyes but i came out as being Non Binary and she did not like that and I've been struggling to meet months end ever since, i got a job and all but it sure as hell doesn't pay much and i between rent and my mental health pills i starve pretty occasionally which isn't really good for me since i have anemia, I have a bit of an abusive roomie and cant really afford moving out because paying rent alone isn't an option, im looking for options that would get me to earn money somehow so i can afford food rn cuz im getting desperate and really ANYTHING will do 😭
Hey yall I’m about to experience homelessness unless I figure something out. This is repercussion due to an abusive relationship. I’ve been in for last 10 years. I’m just kinda left my butt. I’m pregnant again and I have to use small boys. I have housing voucher that’s hanging on by a thread. The current spot I have is just out to not get me please serve have no assistance and the assistance programs they have here I don’t I guess have funding or can’t help me. I don’t know what the whole deal is I kind of overwhelmed and I’ve also made to do things on my to do list and also I just wanna save place for me and my boys to stay. I really don’t want to be stable like you know at a house or anything I want to be mobile I’m trying to procure some land, but that seems to be really difficult coming up with the start a fun for that. I don’t know what to do beside myself and I’ve never been at the stage of life before I’ve have nothing I’ve I have a college degree but it’s cooking and I can’t get a job close by and I don’t know what to do anymore so any suggestions tips helpful hints would be great.
