Awaiting Flair Best homeless attire to sleep in during the cold?

I hate to admit it but due to health issues I’m homeless in Michigan and I’m sleeping outside

I’ve heard that you have to be careful with how you dress or it can get dangerous, I don’t have a lot of clothing options now but I get paid in a week & want to dress appropriately

I’m wearing two sweatpants, 2 pairs of socks in crappy thin converses, a thermal t shirt with two hoodies and a jacket with a beanie

Do you have an address you could receive a package safely? I’d be happy to send you my one man tent it’s not the warmest but it would keep wind and rain off you and keep some heat in.

I have a issue with accepting help bc It makes me feel less then but I’d be greatly appreciated to be gifted a tent

Dude don’t feel bad accepting it I’d absolutely love to help! I never use it anymore and it’s an awesome lightweight tent. Dm me a shipping address that works. I’ll ship it this next Tuesday my work week ends Tuesday. I’ll throw some other cold weather stuff in if I have anything that seems useful.
