I don't feel safe

[Draven]

Thought I'd share one of my issues here with you all. I don't feel safe because I often feel as if if I could be homeless in the near future and I've felt that way for more than a year. I sort of re-recognized that a few moments ago and I quietly cried for ten seconds.

This is all really out of character for me, but thinking about the stress of that and knowing I could have some type of ptsd is very upsetting and I guess I just "emotionally popped" for a second and wanted to at least let this be known and talk about it. Make it something more real. Something to remind me again and maybe do something about it.

If you're feeling it, it's real. That insecurity of becoming homeless would be a difficult challenge for sure.

Hey, bro! As someone who was once very close to being homeless, I can understand your pain, it can be very hard on us.

If you have access to a psychologist or counselor then I would highly suggest you get help. You don't have to fight your demons alone.

If you ever wanna talk about literally anything then I'm always here.

Take care.

Hey man. Just the person I was looking for, actually.

I saw this a while ago and saved it for later, but hadn't replied yet.

Anyway, I just wanted to say, I hope this is only a fear for you, and not something you're actually in danger from right now.
I hope this will be a good year for you.

Thank you man. Yeah it's an anxiety. Thanks again bro.

Thank you man. Yeah it's an anxiety. Thanks again bro.

Of course. I'm no stranger to being gripped hard by fears that can crop up.
You could say in a way my life has been derailed because of it.

But anyway, not to make this about me.
I hope your living situation is stable and fine.
It sounded like you were thinking about some higher ed late last year, hopefully you can do that this year.

I know this is serious talk, but when you said you cried for 10 seconds...
--
I kind of imagined like this huge bulky tough guy, excusing himself to the bathroom for a moment, amongst friends, looking in the mirror, and having a few tears leak out of his eyes, for only 10 seconds.

Then he grabs a tissue, and gently dabs his eyes, sniffles real hard, splashes some water on his face, and walks back out to be a tough guy again.

But on the serious side.. GL bro.. (My apologies if my attempt at humor/levity is in poor taste/miss placed)
