After a Mugging

On 3/22/2008 at 2:30am I was mugged in my building outside of my apartment door. At first I thought I was fine but soon realized that the event had a greater impact on me then I anticipated.
I wanted to read other's who had the same story but couldn't find anything.
So I created my own place to share my story with you.

In hiding

Today I didn't leave the house. I was supposed to do laundry but I convinced myself I'd have time during the week. I most definitely don't have time during the week. I just didn't want to leave the house. There's this huge barrier between me an the outside world. When I picture myself leaving the apartment I remember being cornered. I remember him two steps up to the third floor, looking over his shoulder, smiling, coming towards me.
After my panic attack yesterday I'm afraid of being out at night and having another one. I know I can't hide forever. But hiding away today was good.
