Death threat .

...My understanding was that the amount of SSDI I get precluded me getting any food stamps .

...I've NOT eaten at all to-day , that is what I meant .
I haven't eaten at all today and I ate little yesterday .

Oh, I didn't know you had SSDI. I haven't read your other threads. I assume your SSDI is not enough to rent an apartment (especially in Santa Cruz). I hope you have considered or will consider putting your name on Section 8 waiting lists for various counties.

In the meantime, if you haven't used up your financial aid eligibility, you could register as a student at a community college and use part of your financial aid to pay for housing. If your medical problems prevent mobility, you could just take online classes, although some campus disability offices transport students around in golf carts. You might also be able to earn some extra income from a student job, which are fairly easy to get.

...I - SUPPOSE - I need not worry after all about the renderer of the threat , who , this day , is in this library at another table on another computer and , as he did yesterday , has made no threat to me ~ But , of course , he would hardly threaten openly in public and I hadn't been in my normal sleeping place these last two nites . He is reportedly a speedfreak .
However , directly relating to this , my trip to HPHP yesterday shows me that I'm not really that likely to get housing around here , as I thought might be the case helped along by the threat - I had thought that I might get a temporary berth at that temporary " nice " shelter at HPHP , however , briefly , I won't/didn't , and being informed about developments in the " being on the waiting list " for it seems to involve a whole lot of needing to hang around there and needing to make calls ~ I still don't have a phone , too:--...
The question of " Are you ready to try to get housing " or similar was , too , brought up to me...But , that was meant not as the " nice " 180 thing but what was described as something that would t7ake over 1/2 or so of my SSDI .
I have NOTHING now as is ~ How would I lead ANY life that way ? I have the feeling that that involves , at best , aroom in " cheap motels " far away from downtown or the HPHP area ~ How would I get food ?
Would I have to walk too much ????? I certainly think so .
So , the temporary " nice " shelter and the possible longer-trem 180 thing appear non-likely now .

You can get a free phone with free call and text minutes from Assurance Wireless:

You just need an address where they can ship the phone.

...As you said , you haven't read my other threads .
You make some interesing suggestions but I think that they tend toward not really doable now , in part because I have SO little/am SO down the inancial-social scale and without help now , and I thing the community college suggestion isn't real doable now , I don't think ccs give enough aid for that - do they ??? - and the supposed idea of cc is " you don't have a dorm/live on campus , you stay at home " - would I be expected be " avirtuous ' trying to improve himself ' HL person " who goes to cc wgile sleeping in the hills ? Homeless shelter situation , no matter what nicey-nice T&V movies tell you , basically DON'T allow for people to go to school/jobs and not follow shelter schedules .
This is sorta off-topic to your statement above , I just have something else I need to say and don't wish to analyse what you said in more depth now .

...Actually , I am now in the process of trying to get what I guess might actually be the same phone you're speaking of , a so-called " obamaphone " - They've been giving them away various phone comps. making them have been pushing them , competing w.each other ~ Having got a letter from Social Security proving that I receive SSDI I am planning to go to HPHP , where someone from one company will be at later to-day .

...Anyway , I do think that what I found out yesterday at HPHP appears to point to it being very unlikely that I'll get an even avowedly temporary place through the HPHP " regular " route - As far as getting a temporary time off my feet and some basic treatment I am thinking that the trying-to-get-in-jail again ,route may be nessacary .

food stamps is usually based off a income. so if your ssdi doesn't go above that. which seems unlikely it does, you should get some.

I get 700is from both ssi/ssdi combined and then 150 in food stamps.

I'm very sorry for your situation. Stay safe!

...I got the " Obamaphone " but I can't really figure out how to work it...
The instuctions are extremely minimal , for one , and , as with so many things ...I could use some help - in working it , learning how , but can't get it:-( - Enough , anyway ...........

...I have also found an indication that I may not be getting all of the SSDI I am supposed to get , that about 15-17% percent may be being sucked out
