im so sorry you are feeling that way. i feel ill equipped to give advice at the moment, but i can say that even though it may take some time for the anxiety to pass from your system- it will pass. when you can, take a moment to appreciate your awesome assertiveness in trying to deal with this. be gentle on yourself. youre allowd to be afraid, sounds like that guy really ruffled your feathers. that would trigger me too
I also have a severe trauma that I havent healed from yet and it just made my day worse :(
Ok a little update. We called a sheriff and the guy was just panicking. My mom and brother talked it out. We resolved the issue but I still can’t remove my anxiety and the trigger of my trauma hasn’t subsided. I just wish that people would stop accusing and maybe try talking it out. I understand how nerve racking losing a phone is, but it isn’t right to unjustly accuse someone. Like be nice. I haven’t calmed down a panic attack and trigger of my trauma hasnt gone away :(( I really wish these images would go away
