I was talking with a friend online yesterday and I tried to explain the surreal feeling that arises when I see someone I know in the community shopping etc . , or I 'll be talking to people and be able to give directions or comment on familiar local places . I think I came to understand why this happens . You figure in Jan 2008 , I moved out of my home and into a shelter , in March , I stayed in a shelter in a whole other state , then when I got back I stayed in yet another shelter and then came here to Cleveland to stay with Harry and then moved out of there into this motel room . That 's a lot of transience in 6 months time .

Question: What has the person overcome ?
Being without a home .
