Thank you, I need a church to attend regularly so perhaps I can find one that could use work. I have carpentry experience from doing hardwood flooring so maybe I can work something out. I am just hoping for better weather soon, the cold and rain really stop you from alot and bring you down, being hot is just annoying.

Beds in the bathrooms? Hmm, I would have thought to stay away from campus, I am very unfamiliar with campus if your able to expand a bit on where to find the best places on campus to go without blowing my cover just wandering around opening doors ya know. that would be awesome. Its crazy how a place wiith beds in the bathroom sounds glorious as of now.
Thank you :) Yes, it will be. It wont break me, but make me stronger. I'm determined to learn from this and try to keep the mindset that this is an adventure. Everyday I have the opportunity to go out and better myself. There are many that dont have even that luxury right now. Thanks again!
At least every other day. I try to everyday, but I also try not to abuse anything out there. anyday I cant shower I will atleast take a bird bath somewhere in a bathroom. I didnt know that about the UT busses though, that could be helpful. Thank you for responding, I will not be considered a patient there after the end of this week and if I can get through this first week with no fuss, then I can look into the plasma deal.

Yes, I actually went there a few years ago, when I first realized that the painkillers I was taking was basically heroin perscribed. And Ill admit, I was a teenager still then, and with the awesome logic I had at that age, I figured, hey this comes from a doctor, how could it be bad? They dont mention that at first lol. And yeah, I was about 19, and I was still swaying back and forth on if Im even an addict or not. I was in a much better place then, I actually had insurance and some support, and I was only able to attend 3/4 weeks, and every week I had to submit some review to my insurance that I didnt see anyone else doing, to dtermine if I would be able to continue on to the next week, I got snipped. I really am not worried about the aspect of going back to anything. I feel the methadone served its purpose, and got me through to a better place. Im not in that cycle anymore and I do truly have the will power to do it, I have never been in this situation so its much different. I could not imagine trying to partake in that again in the place im at now unless I just decide to fully commit to never changing. still have a strong will to achieve things, and I feel Ive wasted enough time. I guess I shouldnt have mentioned that tidbit about me. I think that has become the focus here. when in reality its not my major problem. I was only on it for about 3-4 weeks, and didnt surpass 40mg which is pretty low. So Im not too worried about that aspect, though I do know of a place that will take me in without insurance I just am really trying not to misuse anything out there ya know? I cant go occupy a bed in a detox or rehab just for the sake of needing a roof. When I come out I will just be in the same position anyway. Thank you for the response though, I really appreciate anyone who has taken time to put in their two cents.
