It's not a bum because he mentions leaving his apartment.
Kicking the habbit sounds like he's trying to quit smoking or other drugs which is why he mentions 'possession'
any addict would feel possessed, but by the amount of times its mentioned, I think it's smoking, especially because he's in public.
I don't think it's about sex, a lot of it is just normal things you would see in a busy city if you live downtown. prostitutes, homeless people...
Riding the subway is mentioned multiple times.
I think he's walking and describing what he sees as he's walking, home and back perhaps because the subway is mentioned twice.
