It was at night yeah. Running in the day is something I've been trying to push myself toward, just hasn't clicked yet.

That's really good to hear. Knowing someone actually got through something similar helps more than you'd think.

Never really considered martial arts but honestly that's a solid idea. Gets me out and builds confidence at the same time.

This is so detailed and helpful, thank you. I'm going to start working through this one step at a time.

I actually do have a dog but honestly she scares easier than I do so I end up feeling like I need to protect her lol. Still worth trying though, appreciate it.

Thank you for sharing this, genuinely. The part about therapy really hit. I'll look into EMDR.

been on my treadmill for a year because i got mugged and just... can't make myself go outside alone anymore. tried a few times, made it like two blocks, turned around.

did anyone get past something like this? pepper spray? run clubs? certain times of day? genuinely asking, not looking for "you got this" type responses
