Having Multiple Issues

I Have Multiple Mental Illnesses Keeping Them In-Check I am almost an expert at knowing that I need to get assistance. Going to get help is another thing altogether. I go to a therapist, listen to videos, and I am looking for a group to be with people that are feeling the same. I journal to get those crazy thoughts out of my head. I also talk to friends. There are lots of things to do to keep yourself in a healthier state. Getting Help It is hard to admit that you have problems. Next, you have to get the courage to reach out to anyone. You should then seek out help based on the illnesses and how you would like to interact. Finally, you must make sure you can incorporate them into your life at a level that you won't be tempted to quit. You have to at least try and before you know it you are doing.

Waiting for Bus

I was waiting for the bus when some guy asked me for money. I didn't have any. I them realized that ma aube he needed help with his homeless situation. I asked where he was called can camped. He said 10 blocks down. I referred him to Jeffco Action Center but he said he couldn't walk that far. I continued offering places like The Rescue Mission but he was trying to get back to Aurora. His sister wouldn't accept him in the drunken condition. I then suggested a few free rehabs to get him sober but of course, he said he could get sober on his own. I finally realuzed that he has the desire to change but wasn't willing to do what wad needed. Some intelligent homeless alcoholics might turn themselves around. I hope for his sake he will think about what we talked about and change hus life.

Nice Homeless

I met a guy Paul who seemed really nice. He has been homeless for 10 years. He wants to work but can't find work due to having to carry his life with him every where he goes. He has a backpack, duffel bag, and a small carry-on suitcase. I can't imagine trying to go on an interview with those things. He said that if he could only find a storage facility that is 24hrs, cost about $30 a month, and of course down town, he could find work and get off the streets. I have met several cases just like this during this homeless adventure. People trying to get work but have entirely to much to carry around to take to job interview, let alone a job itself.
