I love this city, and I’ve been homeless the last few months, which imo has led me to apreciate it even more. DC is awesome, it will always have a place in my heart. Moe, Bob, Young, Shawty, I’m practically a native at this point /s

But fr tho I love it here and wouldn’t trade my time and experience here for anything

Thank you to everyone and God Bless y’all. The biggest thing I’ve learned, from y’all’s interaction with this post, and from others I’ve spoken with today is I have not been holding myself accountable. I keep using my frustration and pain as a excuse to give up. I’ll be ok, and thank y’all again! -but Do keep the help coming. who knows, this may help others in the same position! And please forgive my horrible grammar/spelling, abuse of the typed English language 😅

Thank you and yeah, I never had insurance before actually. As a matter of fact, this whole ordeal as been opening my eyes to the fact that I have been suppressing past trauma. I HAVE been shirking my responsibilities because of whatever excuse I can come up with. My mental health was never great, and this has been the culmination of that.and the spiritual thing is a understatement bro, like this had been a real eye opener for me.

I honestly don’t know. When I first became homeless I just started sleeping at bus stops. I tried going to whatever shelters I could find nearby. The one in Maryland, closest to me said you had to be referred. So I eventually ended up in DC. And eventually got a DC ID card(couldn’t switch my License over).etc etc
