Your strength and courage isn’t measured by how many times you got kicked down. It’s about how many times you got up. You’re not back at zero. You have the experience of this before, and you have gotten out of that situation successfully. It’s tough, but you can do it again. Don’t give up on yourself.

Get your food situation sorted out. Then if you have no criminal record, look for security guard, desk clerk, concierge type jobs, for example, or temp contract work. From there you can figure out how to shape your life in the way you want it to be.
