Other hardship(s)
43-Year-old man who was homeless for 14 years. He has found permanent accommodation. After experiencing this for so long, he's found out more about resources available to people experiencing homelessness. He will find it hard to transition to a house. He wants to stop the cycle of homelessness and get back on his feet. He knows he is going to need help to get back on his feet and he accepts this. He has experienced issues with drugs and alcohol and often used them to help him sleep and manage his schizophrenia and anxiety. He is on new medication that helps with his mental health and helps him to sleep. He is trying to give up smoking and drinking to improve his health and help himself get back on track. He could benefit from a laptop to seek resources and possibly some sort of employment. He would be so grateful for any support he can get to start living a new life.
