I’ve been facing many years of trauma but the biggest one that’s really affected me was the fact I almost got kidnapped. I was 5, a dude had been watching me go to preschool and one night went into our house and robbed us (he had been in it multiple times when we were gone) and found my room, then proceeded to take my pants down and touch me before wrapping me in my blanket and walking out of my room (with me on his back.) Luckily he got scared from a noise and dropped me but ever since, I panic being in stores or any tight spaces with men. I can’t be in a house alone by myself or I can’t even sleep without my door locked. I’m constantly scared and afraid.

I understand that must be difficult for you to deal with. Everyone wants a place to feel safe. Is there anything or any place in particular that makes you feel safe?
