Scary world for a woman..

I think I was on the edge of danger today. Normally, I’m always on high alert and I’m worried about my surroundings always thinking the worst case scenario. But today really sent me into a complete breakdown.

I went to the store to get something and I had some guy yell from wherever he was about my sweater. I smiled to make sure he wouldn’t be pissed about me completely ignoring him and I walked into the store. When I’m done, I’m already panicking about this guy, however, I can’t help but notice another man is approaching me. He had his phone angled in a way that looked like it was recording and taking pictures. No, it wasn’t on call or FaceTime, he was holding it below his chest by his stomach with the camera straight up in my direction. I then noticed another man appear with this guy, yet the other started to corner my other side I still hadn’t made it to my car so I decided to abandon ship. There was absolutely no one else in the parking lot at this time. I was otp with my boyfriend and I said “actually wait I forgot to buy something for later!” And walked back in. I swear I had a complete panic attack in the store. I felt myself shaking and losing consciousness. There was just too much going on between me feeling trapped, the men, the bags in my hands being a lot, trying to balance my phone in the other hand. I wanted to ask someone to walk me to my car but everyone seemed busy and I didn’t want to seem paranoid or like a burden. I watched the window from the other exit and then when I saw no one around, I rushed to the car and locked the doors. I may sound like I’m exaggerating or paranoid but I really felt my gut instinct tell me it wasn’t safe to walk past those two men. I broke down crying as soon as I got home because of my anxiety and panic being overbearing, hell I don’t even know how I drove home. I just needed to vent. Please be nice and if you don’t have anything nice to say, please don’t say it.
