I'm homeless, posting from my laptop in the library.
What's the fastest way for me to make small sums of cash for food and adequate shelter?
I don't care if I make very little, I just need to make money urgently.

I already get some food from NGOs, but that's not enough, so I'm starving, and already lost a lot of weight.
The homeless shelters are very shit, too. People steal from you and often try to harass you. So now I sleep under a bridge with my laptop. No Wifi under the bridge either, so I have to go to the library to post.

This for sure. Then when you're fed, go door-to-door in wealthier neighborhoods and offer to do gardening or other unskilled labor for cash.

also if you need to get warm get a space blanket + portable sleeping bag should set you back about 22 put the space blanket over the portable sleeping bag. Can probably make your bridge thing more comfy than the housing (or let's get real, shared apartments with wife's boyfriend) of most wagecucks

Wash your clothing at the beach if you don't have access to water. Use something called zout for soap (should be able to get for around $1), and get a clothesline from the dollar store or improvise a clothesline. To handwash you just get some zout on the clothes and rub it in there / rub it around the fibers of the clothes

Do keep in mind the cops might harass you for doing this though - so find a beach with a relaxed culture or where there are not many people. AFAIK it's not against the law but I never go anywhere where the cops are watching

Go to a construction site and tell them you're good at carrying buckets. They'll laugh but 9 times of out 10 it'll land you a job making at least $15/hr.
Save up, buy a skilsaw or borrow one from work. Practice mental math & making straight cuts. Once you prove to your boss you can run one correctly he'll either give you a raise or you can now walk to any other construction site and make 30/hr.

Do the shelters have any services for helping you find work? People with disabilties can work too; there's this company where I live that hires people with mental issues (autism etc) and trains/prepares them for some pretty high paying work in finance and tech.

To be denied disability means you aren't really disabled. They give that shit out to people with sprained thumbs.

Yes. I didn't want to become homeless and was afraid of it. The system is really not omnipresent, all-seeing and all-knowing.

I can't work for example - I'm disabled. I got denied my disability benefits despite having been diagnosed with a severe disability.

In this world, everyone fights for themselves to survive, and there's a shortage of resources. There isn't some entity to take care of you. The strong and the determined prevail.

Anon... you're supposed to OVERplay your symptoms not downplay them. Do you even know how the system works? Go try again as many times as it takes. Even if they feed you on med, it's better than living under a bridge. I get where you're coming from that you wanted to avert especially something as schizophrenia, but if you are in no condition to work as you say you are, you are too early to try to fake it till you make it. Go back and try again.

I take my medication up to the present day. It helps, and I'm able to think and act coherently when I take it. It still doesn't take away all the symptoms. I still feel lile I'm living in a dream from which I can't wake up.

Try dumpster diving, maybe you can find something that you can sell on a local classified. People, for example, will throw out children's jungle gyms. Sell it for like 10 bucks or something super low. Or collect bottles and cans for a little while. There's also newspapers.
