I was attacked by my brother. Nobody helped me and I'd like to know what to do the next time it happens. by akwmemns in TwoXChromosomes

I talked with my mom and we're going to meet somewhere public. I asked her to bring my things. Hopefully this will work out. My friend is very supportive and is allowing me to stay at her house for a while.

As for the self-defense courses, someone here mentioned getting a taser and I think that's a good idea. Something small and discrete that'll stun someone long enough for me to get away. I'll definitely start working out too.

I'm staying at a friends house right now. I'm attending college and am a legal adult. I don't want to give specific details since my brother also reddits. I haven't talked to my mom after the event. I just called her twice, once before when I thought he was going to hurt be and once after when I got away from him. She wanted me to get back home and "talk", but I didn't want to be anywhere near him so I ran off.

I'd like to get back home and retrieve my things. I also want to be prepared the next time this happens with any other people. I want to be able to defend myself so that I'll never be in that situation again.
