Life on the breadline: 'Am I wearing out my welcome?' is a lingering question

Being homeless is more than the loss of the physical space – the ambience and decor you created for yourself to enjoy. It is more than losing that mental space where you feel comfortable, relaxed and secure. Homelessness is a state of being.

People usually take it to mean no permanent physical place of residence; agency forms record NFA (no fixed address). “Accommodationally challenged.” Sleeping in a car, in a bus shelter, in a tent at the showgrounds or in a mouldy caravan. For those in such situations, there are not many real alternatives. Being homeless in Tasmania is like getting into a wet sleeping bag and realising it is full of angry scorpions.
