Extreme Amounts of Stress in Early Sobriety and Another Dilemma

Man, I was fine when I was drinking. But now that I'm sober, my skin feels hot, I'm frayed, nervous, haggard, does this ever go away? Part of it is I am homeless and am sleeping outside. I also have another sobriety threatening issue - the rehab I was in won't take me unless I see a psychiatrist with a full list of med's I am taking along with herpes medication. I have no money and the free clinic that I take med's for takes months to get an appointment. Maybe the Salvation Army ARC can meet me half-way? Another guy is offering me an apartment on Pensacola in Cleveland, but I'm not sure I'm ready to live on my own yet. There is this guy named Dr. Alcorn but it costs $200 and I stood him up last time..

Hi. Surely living on your own in the Cleveland apartment, is better than living on the streets?

That's what I was thinking.

I'm confused. Since you don't have any money, who's paying rent on the apartment?
