No.176829
Rent a public storage so your stuff doesn't get stolen or lost. Get a gym membership to shower. Avoid other homeless people. Don't do drugs or alcohol.
No.176830
>>176829Also, make sure that when you buy a sleeping bag, make sure it is a "mummy" sleeping bag so you can close the sleeping bag around your body for insulation purposes. Regular sleeping bags are too wide and leak heat like crazy, even if they are 0 degree rated. I have to stuff mine with a giant blanket just to insulate the heat and not freeze overnight.

No.176832
>>176831I sleep on my college campus in Boise which is very safe. If you are in LA or something, make sure to stay in the public eye so scavengers don't steal from you or hit you in the face overnight. L.A. is also incredibly segregated against popular though. Imagine a video game map with "popular" districts, and high-immigrant tweaker neighborhoods, so stay in places like West Hollywood, or Santa Monica to be safe

How do you accept the fact that you'll be homeless for the rest of your life? I'm autistic and only have SSI to live on for now.
>can't work or save enough money to rent an apartment
>can't drive so living in a car isn't possible
>don't go to college so staying on a campus isn't available
>have nobody to rely on like friends or family

No.176837
>>176835>How do you accept the fact that you'll be homeless for the rest of your life?Preparedness helps. Once you become knowledgeable and materially equipped well enough to survive outdoors, all that will remain is the emotional attatchment to the comfy life. Letting go isn't easy. In a worst case scenario you may even be able to trick yourself into believing you've severed your ties only to get hit by homesickness hard when hoboism does come around. If you live a depressing life frequented by loss and physical hardship then eventually the thought of sleeping on top of a sewer grate to stay warm loses its fear factor. Don't push yourself to become hard-tempered by going out of your way to induce despair while you still live comfortably though. Instead, when bad things happen in your daily life, reflect on how being homeless might have made things different. Would you have experienced that particular bad thing if you were living outdoors? If not, then rejoice that you won't experience it again in the fiture.
The objective problems of homelessness vanish when if you prepare for them ahead of time. Shelter, heat, food, water, transportation, health+safety… All things that can be learned how to obtain on a zero budget, and all things that can be prepaired for ahead of time to give yourself a massive advantage on the streets. If you're certain that you will have no home in the future, then buy what you may need now to survive outdoors where you live. Look at 3-day pack setups from preppers and outdoor enthusiasts, create and fulfill a checklist of environment-specific essentials, then keep whatever gear you've manifested safe and at the ready. Watch videos of diy shelter, hobo living, and again outdoor survivalism and build up knowledge of basic out-of-house existence tips. If you do this, the thought of 'how to survive' won't interfere with the thoughts of 'why bother surviving' after you take that final step out the door.
No.176838
>>176837Yes, the best advice I can give wizards is to NOT idealize homelessness. It isn't like a movie where it's fun and adventurous. Imagine walking 3 miles with remnants of stool irritating the inside of your anus from the chaffing back-and-forth. Imagine losing your wallet at a restaurants. Imagine getting arrested and going to jail with wizard-antithetical scum who talk nonstop about fucking succubus.
No.176839
>>176837Great post, but why do all that when you could get yourself locked up instead? I often hear that "three hots and a cot" phrase thrown around by the homeless. If you have nothing to lose anyway, then going to jail or getting committed to a psych ward seem to be viable options. It beats wandering around all day outside doing nothing. I also heard you even get help like job placement or social services once you are released from jail, or am I missing something?

No.176841
>>176839there's always lots of homeless when I get put in the hospital, it seems like a viable method of living, you get free food and water and television and movies and unscheduled drugs whenever you ask, but you gotta act crazy enough for them to not release you and if you act too crazy you get put with actual crazy people, it seems like a lot of work and social manipulation, also laws depend where you're from
No.176842
>>176841Yeah makes sense, I was hospitalized for mental illness multiple times before. It seems viable to me. Like you said, you have to act pretty insane, but it shouldn't be much of a problem for a seasoned wizard. And of course, stay away from the schizos if you can help it.

I’m semi homeless at this point (living in an avandoned Playhouse in the woods sometimes and when I have 10 bucks spare in a group house like right now), legally I am at least but Ive yet to get any money from state and its not sounding good. I think I hit the jackpot though. At the local grocery store they have these big boxes where they throw stuff out each month and in one of the crates they put bottles and stuff I think they take out from the recycling place but they don’t destroy them so I can put in the same bottles each time. It’s like a free money glitch irl. It’s only like 5 bucks every day but sometimes theres more
>>176840“Freedom”, having to spend hours looking for cans or finding a place to charge my phone (and my power bank which got stolen at the house, fucking gypsies)? Wagies are more free, tho being homeless in the countryside is better I had family pass away so I spent the last of my bank money on bus and train.

No.176978
>>176977Depends where and how long you'll be homeless. Basics include a backpack with sleeping bag and small tent if possible. Different places require specialized gear, for example if you're somewhere more tropical you might want a bug net and thin sleeping bag while if youre in the north you might want a thicker sleeping bag

No.176994
>>176982From the few days I've spent sleeping outdoors so far I'd say the essentials for snowy weather are:
-Thin, one-size-up, moisture wicking thermal insulating long underwear set.
-Sleeping pad dedigned to reflect ground heat, inflatable kinds are great
-Sleeping bag rated for subzero safety
-Any tarps you can carry.
-Fluffy hat and gloves, even dollar store ones.
Sleeping on frozen ground and concrete felt as warm as an indoor bed once the air inside the bag and mat matched my body heat. On a -9c night I had to strip down to just the underwear, and if you get a bag big enough to sit up in, the tempurture inside when just idling on your phone can become unbearably hot
Wearing a covidmask to sleep helps to reduce moisture buildup in front of your face, which can ice up your bag.
Laying atop and under tarps will keep the snow off the bag which is vital unless you're urban and near a laundromat.
There are other neccesities but a bad sleep makes for a bad day, so if you're able to regularly score ample hours of cozy sleep, your mind will be in the right place to improve things further. I have more to say but frankly it's time I hit the hay myself, will post more later

>>177002It's actually really simple to understand. Homeless people are the way they are because they can't afford to live in conventional housing, like an apartment or house. But, you must be thinking, they can just get a job, right? That would be a great solution, however it's not easy to find work anymore, especially the kind that pays enough to have a roof over one's head. Zero (or insufficient) income equals no shelter.
A lot of homeless people also have substance use disorders and/or severe mental illness, which makes it really difficult to find work because nobody wants to hire someone like that. So they are basically left with few options unless they stop using drugs or being mentally ill long enough to make enough money to get off the streets.
It seems like wizards in general suffer from social ostracism, which would make it much harder to fit in with society and be productive members of society (myself included).

Being homeless is actually a blessing in disguise. It's the ultimate motivator. If you were already unmotivated to commit suicide, then not being comfy ever again will definitely light the fire under you to jump off a skyscraper. Or if you're still too afraid to do that, you could just die of natural causes like illness after not going to the hospital for treatment. The possibilities are truly endless.

If either gets wet your shit is fucked.
Cellphone is better when you are homeless, tablet computer at most with a really sturdy case.
Even if your shit doesn't get stolen it will get broken or it will break you by being too cumbersome.
Homelessness is a life of mobility even if you are more or less hanging around the same spot.
Too much weight and too much shit will become a burden.
Murphy's law loves fucking with you while you are down so anything that can break should be assumed that it will. It better be something you can go without or can easily replace.
Cellphones can be replaced easily. Laptops are a pain when you don't have a shipping address.
Lastly if you have the money for data it is much easier to have internet access with a smartphone.
This may come as a shock to you but most homeless aren't tech illiterate. They know how to use laptops n shit. It just isn't as practical to street life. If I was given a laptop while I was homeless I would have just pawned it. I love computers, including my current computers, but it just isn't worth it.

What is needed in those cases is a proper support network of family and other/or other people who are in their lives who care about and help keep them on track. Something worth struggling for and people who will struggle with them, kind of thing.

>There are no simple solutions for severely mentally ill people on a societal scale.Yes there is, it's called integration. Help them become independent and give them the necessary medications to control their disorder. There's no reason why the mentally ill should continue to live in destitution while the junkies are given every bit of social support just to relapse and OD a short time later anyway.

It was nowhere near as bad as the other wiz was saying, they just told me I cant do that there and to put it out then they drove away. I later learned to minimize the smoke and fire becasue I thought someone might have called the fire brigade and instead try to get a lot of hot embers in a confined vessel like a can.

For those struggling with food try mixing nut powder, almond powder, honey and olive oil. A spoon of this paste will keep the hunger away + its healthy and gives you energy (it will weaken you the first days tho). A pot of this mixture can last a month or two (depends on how often you eat and the size of the container of course).
Almond powder, olive oil and honey can be found in groceries for peanuts. Not sure about nut powder tho, if not then you should invest in a manual mixer and make the powder yourself with nuts you've bought or found (if your lucky to live in an area with lots of nut trees or wathever you call them lol).
This is the perfect ration for vagabonds
-has everything you need dietwise (1-2 spoons a day is sufficient)
-gives you energy ( you'll want to beat a horse and i'm not even kidding)
-cheap ingredients
-can easely fit in your bag
-lasts long (olive oil keeps it from rotting)
This is all for me, hope it helps.

Just stashing a bucket in the forest, fill it with water and washing detergent. Have a small scrubbing brush on hand to scrub things properly clean.

No.181140
>>181115Have you never washed up at a sink before?
That's mostly what I did. Wet wipes helped stay fresh too.
If you got a washcloth even a bowl of water can be enough to get a lot of grime off and stay somewhat fresh. If you also disinfect the skin before or after the water scrub (i usee rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle) then you can get totally clean with very little water. Just be sure to properly dry the wash cloth after every use and wash it every few days or it will get gross.
Only tricky thing is washing your hair if you have alot of it. It can be done in a sink too but it is really tedious.
The disinfectant trick doesn't do much against hair greasiness or dandruff. Just water alone requires large quantities to really thoroughly rinse it out. Which isn't practical when on the streets.
If you have a bit money to work with then a gym membership is a good investment. They usually have showers on site. Plus it's a place you can hangout when the weather is shit.
It's more common for car campers and van lifers though. I didn't do it myself but many swear by it.
Baby wipes can sort of work in a pinch. You won't feel clean but it can keep you from stinking.
Overall if you have short hair it's pretty easy to stay relatively clean.

I've been delinquent in paying bills for awhile and was feeling guilty about it so I logged into my parent's accounts and tried to cancel. There's no way to do it over the internet. They want you to call possibly to offer you new deals or lower your payment plan. Insurance has also not been paid for awhile. I've been driving their (my?) car for months without it.

Sanity is more valuble then food. Go search food banks and the like and pick up a box next time they give them out. Its usually once a week.

If you are not so mental that you can actually work then you should be trying to get a job while you still have a address to put on applications and all your papers in order.
Working sucks but being homeless sucks way worse.
Right now you are at a critical time. If you push yourself a little bit out your comfort zone to better your situation and advicate for yourself you will suffer much less in the long run.
If you do nothing and just let whatever happens happen without fighting for yourself then you are in for a very bad time. Inaction is a choice. A choice with negative outcomes.

No.181244
>>181242If you don't have doctors on your side, and your family won't speak up for you, then benefits are pretty hard to come by as a single male.
My only advice is that you have to find a job or hustle that you find at least somewhat bearable, then do whatever you have to in order to keep that income rolling in.
Also if they think you need therapy then they do believe you that you have a problem, they just think that it is a treatable problem.
If you can get them to set up treatment such as therpy to help you learn to cope with your anxiety and depression then I don't see why you shouldn't at least give it a shot.
If it doesn't work then there will be a medical and official record of it which you can use to get benefits. If it does work then you won't feel like shit anymore.
There just doesn't from my perspective seem like there is a lot to lose, while there is a lot to be gained ether way. Though if there is co-pays or you have to pay out of pocket then I fully understand not being able to go with that option.
If you get a referral while also being able to prove that your household income is low then you can probably at least get benefits to pay for most if not all of the therapy.
I would look into it.
And even if it doesn't pan out, you can use it to guilt trip your parents into giving you more time since you are trying but don't have the option of treatment unless they pay for it.
>>181239You don't have to be homeless to get the free food. Actually the places that give out the most food (usually food banks and farm share programs) prefer if you have a address since it implies you have refrigeration so you can take in perishables.

I live in a terrible place that I've hated my whole life in Canada. Although I've worked countless odd jobs over my life, I'm not sure I have any real skills, and certainly no qualifications since I dropped out of HS.
I gotta get out of where I am because I'm in a really nasty situation that's heading for a seemingly inevitable self-necking. But I don't know where to go. There is nowhere within my abilities to go to that isn't just another version of hell. Only place I can think of is Montreal because it's the only place in North America.. that isn't like North America. But I know barely any French and I don't have any money save for a credit card.
I've been going over my options for years but it seems that any which way I'm bound to go it will lead to ruin.
I don't know what to do. But homelessness seems a very real possibility, and I'm pretty sure that's just guaranteed death.

You might not make as much or as quickly but you will be tolerated more and kicked from good spots less.
Also being presentable, happy, appreciative, and harmless looking gets far better results then looking hard up and weathered.
It's dumb but normies rather give money to people who don't look like they desperately need it then someone who looks like they are having a hard time of things.
Its a sells job where the only product you are offering is making the person giving you money feel good about themselves.

I've been off my meds for awhile now and I feel like my skin is crawling. I have difficulty sleeping at night because of it. Got a cheap backpack and $20 phone from Walmart. You don't need a residence to register trac phones, but you do need an internet connection or someone elses phone to activate. Base $20 was 120 minutes text and MB data. I've realized many places that advertise free WIFI don't or nobody knows the passphrase. I thought for sure a local library or McDonlads would offer it. Instead I had to go back to the place that killed my mom.

Due to the slippery slope no matter how much in pain you are an ass can point at someone even worse off so as to pretend he's negating negative emotions when in reality he just does not want to hear a complaint regardless of suffering. It goes hand in hand with that 'sink or swim' stuff in regards to the bum situation. Don't complain, just die or make it so I won't have to hear it anymore. When you do make it don't forget that faux smile when at 'work'.
>>176828If you live in the USA you should probably pay attention to county laws and nothing else. In my area in FL you get like 3 days in jail and owe the jail on top of it if found sleeping outside. Also parks are closed at dusk automatically. Every year that goes buy you see more trees chopped down and other plants so as to try to drive the bums out and also more and more signs brought to you by the sheriff about how you cannot trespass anymore.
Honestly FL is gray, now red, if you want to be treated nice one would go a blue state, that's where all the national reserves are anyway, especially the left hand side. The upper left of the USA. The upper right is too developed of course.

>>181610Learn a musical instrument. Tell jokes, appear sober. Do not be rude. Make a good sign and greet people. Do not be afraid to socialize. Also appearing clean helps but being dirty can be beneficial too.
I did the homeless thing on and off cause I got bored of wageslaving, so I'd just smoke weed and read at the library, heckle people on the streets and enjoy the shenanigans of other homeless people.
The worst is being followed by undercover cops or having cops recognize you or becoming a regular at a soup kitchen. 10/10 food but don't make it a habit.
Don't mingle too much with the homeless or you'll either get stuck into their dirty junky schemes or fall victim to a predator who hurts you.
Learn to minimize what you own. This means you'll have to learn how to sacrifice, which is hard at first but rewarding.
The less you own, the better life is.
This, as for anyone else who knows, is a life changing opportunity to move around your country either by foot, train or hitchhike.
Trust your instincts. Don't suck dick. Accept work whenever possible. Don't sleep rough as your body will hurt relatively soon.

>>183666Sometimes I'd mooch it from people by asking politely if they had any spare weed.
I was outside a pub once where I'd heckle people and a succubus passed by. I asked her if she'd be so kind as to give a bum down on his luck a bit of weed. She gave me a joint and smoked one with me on the spot.
I also worked odd jobs from time to time. Growing your own is your best bet. Finding good seeds is good but if you're on the streets, don't share your weed with others, unless you're making connections. I've found it better to learn as you go, so take my advice lightly.
What works for one man will lead another to destitution.
>>183669Ideally don't unless you're prepared to get knocked around mentally by sleep deprivation and the other homeless. I'm not like the others teehee, I kept my hands clean of hard drugs and kept to myself, which either paints you as a lone wolf or an easy target.
My worst encounter was probably when I was going to go pick up a six pack of piss, and greeted some meth heads on a nearby set of stairs. One of them jumped me, pulled me by the collar and asked me what I meant by having a good day. I looked at him and said I just want you to have a good day and this schizo I had befriended came by and smacked the meth head and told me to leave.
Don't befriend schizos. That guy carried a machete in his backpack around town and stole drugs off people. He gave me some dirty acid he had robbed off some beach bums earlier in the day and revealed it all later. I think he was trying to root me but I always just talked to him out of pity and slipped into an alley whenever I saw a chance.
Another nice memory was at a beach rave. A homosexual was handing out ketamine, so I figured I'd indulge. Rubbish ketamine really. My alcoholic acquaintance showed up and we smoked ciggies as the party died down. A colourful slut started shaking her ass in front of her and I told my friend he's next on her long list of kills. We laughed and I said, every succubus has their place to shine regardless of their looks when there isn't any other available. What happened next was vile. A manipulative man I had met earlier tried his schtick on me by using a feminine voice and drowning out my thoughts with gab. It's a really good tactic if you're capable to spew shit you don't believed in while slipping in suggestive tones to make yourself look like a victim when you're really getting set up into a trap. Always avoid these types. Do not give them the time of day. I flattered him for ten seconds until I walked off. Anyway, that peacock looking succubus caught his eye and another man of lower worth tried his luck with her. I saw all three of them cuddling on the rocks while the manipulator was getting kisses and the lower man was looking lost yet content feeling some physical contact.
Then I walked to a can depot to hand in $50 worth of bottles, cans, etc while on acid and cried how broken everyone else was as they were picking rubbish to support themselves and possibly their family or as a hobby.
Either you become one of them or you forge your own path as a vagabond. I ended up going international and working again to avoid this. It's better to take small steps than to plunge entirely into the deep end or you get really fucked up. A work friend I had got trapped into an abusive relationship with a junky. He started smoking crack and panhandling for both of them and probably taking it up the pooper. I tried to save him but he was too far gone.

By the way. If you're going to vagabond, buy good light gear. Most of my earliest wages doing seasonal work was devoted to understanding gear and doing my best to be efficient with it. Having little is a godsend. Don't splurge on fancy stuff you're going to get stolen or break. Yes it may happen but those are valuable skills.
I nearly had an older dreg rob me when I was hitchhiking for fun. We smoked a joint and in through the psychedelic haze, he spoke his true intentions out loud. "He must have at least 1k in that bag." It clicked in my head it was time to exit the ride, so I asked him to pull over at a rest stop and ran to my gear in the trunk, pulled it out and slept in peace knowing my worthless smelly gear was at least safe. At the time my most valuable items were a harmonica, a journal, my sleeping pad and my down sleeping bag but they're essentials to live at least sensibly.
Learning about yourself to develop skills you've sluggishly failed to find or catch onto is anyone's first step. Your first year is always your best as its new and fresh. Don't lose those valuable lessons and don't waste time.
I used to be a neet with nothing in the world but an internet connection, a drug addiction and a porn habit that messed up my sexuality. By browsing imageboards you're absorbing the negativity that's bred in these crab buckets. You'll see how life changes when you're not here 24/7 chasing the next dopamine rush.
I had no skills, no friends, nothing but all the time in the world. So I thought, why not just wander? Its better than sitting here letting my muscles atrophy. By the way, be careful at the start. Don't over exert yourself if you've been sedentary. Learn what to eat. Be mindful how often your body is telling you what you need to eat, when you need to piss, what needs to be done. Horny? Rub one out. Hungry, no food? Beg, soup kitchen, go work, dumpster dive. Thirsty? Learn how to make a fire. Cold? Deal with it until you get better clothing. Avoid cottons unless they're your last layer. They don't breathe. Wool is ideal and will keep you warm even while wet. Lonely? Go talk to someone. Anxious about talking to someone? Don't be a fag, they're likely not to hurt you unless you're into that. Bored? Make up your own fun. Feeling lost? You're never lost unless you've been kidnapped or really walked too far into the woods. Need new gear? Get a job. Hate your life? Work towards improving it even if you have to wage. Hate your job? Go find another. I've quit so many times it's gotten more amusing that I do so because its boring.
I'm not someone you should look up to or emulate. Don't believe I've been happy the entire time but its been far better than being a neet. I've met great people but I'm still not at my goal yet.
Also socks, don't forget good socks and shoes. Never walk in another man's shoes. You're going to damage your feet, cause blisters and hurt your posture.
If you have anymore questions, please ask.

>>183686I'm going to write a collection of stories one day. I just need a better environment away from the internet to separate from my addictive personality.
I did drift a while through South East Asia. Nothing too interesting happened except being a smelly tramp ignoring my true possibilities.
Through the years I've grown to see people as beneficial to my mental health and output. I've been pretty alone the past few months due to work and though I try to avoid being a devil, I'm compelled to struggle between being kind and manipulating people to benefit my workplace's productivity and my desire to be proud of something. Also note that I don't manipulate to gain sexual desires. Overall had I not continued drifting I would have continued down the dark path of hating people for no good reason other than what imageboards had fed me. There's a good amount of information here that's very venomous to the soul and the times I've had extensive breaks I've felt relieved and yet yearning to relive those decadent moments of dark humour.
>>183719Goals? Own some land, grow some food, write music, write some stories, and maybe body build.
I do have a desire to enter politics but I'm still too uneducated at the moment to gain any real traction in my home country. I think my lust to gain power may get a bit cumbersome at times so I feel its better to devote that energy towards creative pursuits.

>>177463you can have some sips, but nothing that gets you drunk, that means you should never go over a quarter bottle for the day (remember to give your liver a one week rest before you drink again), assuming you don't chug
then again you are homeless and you really shouldn't be throwing money away like that.
