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.

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)

Why are you going to be homeless? Try getting a job so that doesn't happen. I wouldn't wish that upon anyone.

There are plenty of homeless people with jobs. He's probably doing everything he can to avoid it... wth.

It's just a question, no need to get offended. He never mentioned anything about a job whatsoever in this post, just the fact he was going to be homeless and he's worried about it. I didn't say he didn't have a job nor am I getting on him for not having one. I know the struggle, I've been close to both. I wouldn't be talking about something I know nothing about. Learn to relax a bit.

Lovely, Say don't get offended and then say things that you know are offensive. Glad to see we have another troll on the forum. /s

I know about this fear as well. I would think that in the US right now there a lot of people that know this fear. If you can't see how that was a cold thing to say to some one experiencing this fear then I can't help you.

Hope you find all the attention you're looking for, dear.

Everyone seems to assume what isn't the case, but that's okay, we all have our opinions. I didn't say anything offensive whatsoever, you just took it that way. I don't know what I said in my post that you found offensive whatsoever. I'm guessing you can't deal with criticism or people for that matter. We're in the real world, learn to navigate it.

Project away all you like, I'm done with you.
