Help Alternatives to Homelessness?

[resCogitans]

I can only stay at the place I'm at currently until the 12th of this month. I don't have money for rent for any longer than that. I can't go back to my parents' house. I'd rather die than go back. Is there anything I can do in this situation still or is CTB the only realistic option left over for me?

Welcome to SaSu!

Depending on where you live and upon availability homeless shelters can be an option but this is probably not the best option. Y is that absolutely not an option to live with your parents temporary?

Idk what u can actually do. I'm sorry you have to go through this.

Pretty much ... That.

I understand you have a bad relationship with your parents, but homelessness is really tough..

Check if any homeless shelter can inform you.

I'm assuming a homeless shelter wouldn't be a consistent escape from being on the streets (or the wilderness), and that's what you mean by it not being the best option. That would make living at shelters basically a non-option for someone that can barely cope with a normal life like me.

It seems safe to assume there aren't any other live options aside from CTB, then. I'm usually not good at assessing what doors are still open to me in most situations, or what is most realistic/practical, but I guess this one is pretty straightforward.

What sucks is that where I'm, in terms of living arrangements, right now is pretty close to ideal to me, and it will be hard to put myself on the right mindset to discontinue my own existence like this. I know for a fact, though, that, as soon as I even see my parents, I won't have the desire to be alive anymore. In fact, I'll start feeling like ending not just myself again.

I think I'll cry for someone to let me crash at their place on Facebook or something. Then I'll fail at gathering any pity or sympathy, just like I failed at getting a job to keep myself afloat. Then I'll buy a rope and head to the woods to hang myself on a tree, and fail somehow too. Then I'll wander around the woods not knowing how to exit from it because I'm too much of a failure to remember the path I took to get in, eventually dying of starvation and thirst as I curse this world for being the way it is, and myself for being such a wretched loser in every conceivable level.

My parents are really, really lucky I'm this merciful.

personally, (keeping in mind i have different views, so just throwing something different out there) id try to embrace houselessness.
but i like the woods and am not the biggest fan of humans. sustainability (food) might be an issue

like i said though, a different view so i wouldnt blame you for going 'thats not for me'


a more normal option, what about a roommate? idk about where you live but i know ive seen ads looking for a roommate to split rent/bills with so its only (divide by amount of people) expensive

Do you have absolutely nobody where you can spend a night or two? Friends, distant family, local church, local organizations? I don't know you or your context, but those are places I would hit up before hitting the streets. What are squatting laws like in your country? Just because you have to leave the place you are in on paper, doesn't mean that it is the reality.

Homeless life is a harsh life, and it is very hard to get back out of it.

self-induced-death is far from your options if the situation you're dealing with is no other than homelessness. If you couldn't walk, if you were ill, then you'd be screwed. For your situation, you just need to find some org, shelter, church, or even go sleep in a public sheltered space for a while until you find something. For example, I went to sleep in a public emergency hospital once because there was no place I could go to sleep. Then find a job and save money... so on. If you're healthy and pursue wisdom, you can do it.
