I wonder if any really see the pattern, much less want to see the pattern:

Homeless->depression->
mental illness->drug addiction.

The problem starts with homeless. Not any other way!

Once it has gotten to addiction we have let gone too far without doing anything. So our whole society is at fault for letting it go too far.

Enough said!

@being well there are many reasons for being homeless. That is one of many.

@DeWayfarer I mean depression and mental illness usually begins in a dysfunctional home, so once someone becomes homeless they're in most cases already heavily wounded..

@being you are looking at it from how a young person would look at this. I understand that. Yet the reasons for homeless affect all ages and of all backgrounds.

FYI the billionaire Howard Hughes was a hobo for a bit. Basically homeless.

Yet the reasons for being homeless go even further.

And why I say there are many reasons for homelessness.
