I'm an agnostic.

But I think you might need some kind of God to help you out of this mess.

I wouldn't feel a particular objection should you "find" Jesus.

f**k THE HOSPITAL!! !

I CAN'T STRESS THIS ENOUGH! LEAVE!

GET YOURSELF ORGANICALLY GROWN GARLIC, TUMERIC POWDER, AND BLACK PEPPER

CHEW AT LEAST THE 3 GARLIC CLOVES A DAY FOR TWO WEEKS.

MIX 1TBSP OF TUMERIC WITH EQUAL PARTS BLACK PEPPER IN WATER

IT BURNS, YOU'LL SMELL LIKE GARLIC, BUT IT WILL HEAL YOU.

I AM USING ALL CAPS, BECAUSE I CAN'T STRESS THIS ENOUGH!! !! !! !

OTHER THINGS TO HELP YOU: ORGANIC HONEY (NOT THAT BILLY BEE CRAP), OLIVE OIL, CAYENNE IF YOU CAN HANDLE IT, GOATS MILK, REAL SEA SALT OR PINK SALT.

LEAVE THE CARE OF THE HOSPITAL NOW. RUN. IT'S A REVOLVING DOOR. TAKE IT FROM SOMEONE WHO IS CHRONICALLY ILL, AND WHO KNOWS. I KNOW THE SYSTEM BACKWARDS AND FORWARDS, AND YOU CAN PM ME IF YOU NEED ANY MORE REMEDIES.

I apologize for the caps, but I feel that they are warranted. I've been there, so I know firsthand. The hospital system is f*****g dangerous, at least where I am. The mismanagement, and incompetence among the doctoral and nursing staff, as well as cuts to the front lines. I just assume it's like that everywhere after 2008.

They serve stale GMO food in hospitals. LOL! That's if you get food at all...:S

I offered you help and a way to get housing and everything and you could afford it. You turned it down. It wasn't in SF or good enough. I'd have paid for the bus ticket you needed too. The place is nice, one bedroom, full bath, kitchen with all appliances, livingroom, carpeted, central air and heat, garden apartment style, water included, for about $110 a month. You said you weren't interested at all.

So what is it you're wanting? People to send money, or stuff, or to let you come live with them? A place of your own that you can afford, near medical care, is not what you want so what is it that you want?

I'm just curious, not being mean at all. I think a lot of people are curious about what it is you want. Let us know and somebody else might step up.

Wow, OOM, that was a generous offer and one ASS-P should have taken. He'd be fairly healthy at this point if he had.

I've wondered at times whether the point of the posts was to get some sympathetic person to send money (because I've seen posts by ASS-P referring to money he's received from people here) and I would caution people that San Francisco has TONS of assistance for the homeless (and yes, there are very basic requirements for behavior, hygiene and money management) and responding to online begging for money or items is not really helping him.

ASS-P, you are at a crossroads here-either you will continue living as you have been and you will continue to shuttle between the hospital and the streets (no, college is not an option here), or you will plug yourself into the multiple resources available to you that will give you shelter, medical care and basic needs.

...I really have to point out that the offer OOM refers to makng was , which was made in PMs , not made clearly - perhaps due to a posting problem she herself admitted to - and. I did not know such an offfer had been made til' it had been withdrawn . I don't like getting into arg ments , but it's true .

It really doesn't matter at this point. The important thing now is you're in a city that probably provides more assistance to homeless people than most, and if you make the choice to follow the rules and deadlines to access them, you could have regular medical care, shelter and basic needs met. You are the only person who can help YOU.

If you continue living like you have been, then you are also making a choice, one that leads to a premature death and a miserable existence before that.

...Omni , you do not seem to realize that I have been " sensibly " in the shelter for , I believe , literal months now ! Do you not realize that ? I have been " doing sensible things " . I have !
I have also been through many many hundreds of dollars , for things stolen and used up and " thrown away " by the shelter - I am down now to just the scanty shorts I came into this hospitalization with , where I had too sets more before - But the shelter threw it away:-( ! I am allegedly in line for some SRO-plus thing .
Anyway , I HAVE been " sensible ' !

ASS-P, you sound your life is f****d up beyond all recognition.

I would PM olive oil mom, LIKE NOW, and haul ass over there.

You have a ticket out of homelessness right there.

SF is a toxic place, and despite there being resources for junkies and homeless, there aren't enough, and your s**t will get stolen. Shelters are no places to be. Most homeless in toronto, where I am from, would rather freeze on the street, then step foot in a shelter.

Just a name like Olive Oil Mom. Accept the offer.

Spoken from a sickly, person who was once in your boat.

I might have misunderstood but the way I read OOM's post was that the offer had been made in the past and was refused and is no longer on the table.

...The offer was never made that I could do understand till it had been withdrawn .
BWhat was apparently intended
By OOM did not reach me? OOM herself said there was a problem with her PMs .
I'm really sick of this subject ! Don't " you " want me to do the " sensible " thing of accepting immediately offered , iif perhaps requiring some waít , help in where I am already ?

You said you didn't know about the bus ticket, but before I withdrew my offer you said the apts didn't sound worth living in and that your friends weren't here. I still have the PMs. I can go look if you want.

Of course people want you to accept what is offered there immediately. But what it sounds like to a few of us is that it sounds like you are wanting people to offer money or things or open their homes to you. That's why I'm asking for you to clarify what it is you are asking for. What has been offered immediately there to accept? My offer would have had a roof over your head by May or June at the latest.

I know when you were asking for someone to make phone calls for you because you wanted to go to college, I PMd you with some advice about how to use someone else's phone like a waiter or bartender or someone who works somewhere you frequent and you said you weren't interested in doing that you wanted someone else to do it for you.

So what you want seems to be confusing on this end. It comes across like you want people to do for you and give you things but you also say that you just want a chance at a normal life and to do for yourself, but from the few times I've talked to you you have turned down ways to do for yourself. So that's why I'm asking here. For all I know there may be somebody out there willing to give money or stuff or open their home to someone online without checking them out first, although I'm not one and most aren't, but you have to state flat out what it is you want and stop hinting around hoping somebody comes to your rescue in the exact way you want them to.

Of course saying you just want money, stuff or a free place to stay may make lots of people stop reading you but it also culls out the folks who won't do it and targets your audience. So, I could be wrong about what you want but either way you should just state directly and in detail what exactly you want people to do.

By the way. Have you seen the site GoFundMe? That might give you a better shot at getting money than here.
