Would you walk alone in a state park by yourself, into the woods?
I really love going to national parks and battlefields but they normally have paths in the woods that you walk on and see more sites. Normally this can make me very nervous because I worry about someone hurting me and so far my therapist and I are unsure about how unsafe/safe this is: A woman walking alone in the woods. It makes me angry that it's something I can't do (both in terms of safety and anxiety) and then of course, I'm aware I must be safe and use common sense.
The last time I did this I thought to myself how many people visit this park and even though I was alone, I thought about how it's not a dangerous place (family place). I thought about how people come by there every few minutes. There are park rangers etc.
What do you think?
