Now more than ever I feel insecure, unsafe and alone. I have this knot in my stomach. For the first time in my life I am genuinely scared. I feel as vulnerable and helpless as a little kid. Having this experience, now more than ever, makes me feel alone, though I know it’s not true, I hate the fact that I can’t ask someone to spend the night with me just because I’m scared. I wish I could have someone to call and just pour my feelings out, or simply be with me when I’m not feeling well.
