Many homeless shelters are worse than sleeping rough because the security situation is so dire. At worst you can be locked in (yes, some lock you in for the night) with violent and rapey men but an averagely bad night might still mean having your phone stolen.

Too add further stress to overwhelming anxiety, many people who work in homeless shelters are also, unfortunately, narcissistic bullies on a power trip.

Nobody gives a fuck about the security situation of homeless people though and their reluctance to use shelters is usually chalked up to them being drug addicts unwilling to deal with the no drug mandates.
