I am in very real danger and don't know how to protect myself.

[Fadeaway]

There is so much going on in my life that I have wanted to share but couldn't bring myself to discuss it right yet.

I barely feel comfortable discussing this right now, but things are beyond what I can cope with. My bodies physical response apparently shows that as I passed out in public today for no apparent reason and was taken to the E.R. Dr.s couldn't find any medical cause and diagnosed it as an acute stress response.

There are details I fear to mention until I am safe, on the off chance the people who are threatening me come to this site as they also have PTSD.

I was falsely accused of doing multiple things, I didn't do. I would have been justified if I had done those things, but I didn't. As a result I had a threat made on my life. I wasn't even aware until I was told to remain in my room for my protection while it was handled. I didn't even know there was an issue until afterwards and I am still shy on the details.

Now I know several people are involved and another person threatens me. I am sorry for the lack of details, it will make more sense once I can tell you. Here is some details and answers to questions you might have.

• It is the week of my trauma anniversary, despite making plans with professionals to reduce stress this week, I have been put in a situation I have no control over.
• No I can't leave. Not ready to disclose why. Not in jail but it feels like it.
• Person A violated a restraining order tonight, person B made physical threats.
• I am afraid getting law enforcement involved could put me at greater risk..

I am in an unfamiliar city and trapped in this situation

That sounds super scary. I assume since you are in a strange city there is no one there you trust to talk with. Can you call someone from "home?" Do you have a T you can call? Are you safe in the space you are in? Please take care of you.

Not knowing your circumstances and history of it, it is hard to try to help you except to say that I've read your post and am concerned for you. If you truly are in danger and threats have been made on your life, and someone has violated a restraining order then this is a legal matter and you should consider going to the police.

 

[Fadeaway]

No onefrom home.
Police can't do much. New t. The danger is where I sleep at night.

This does sound scary. I'm so sorry that you're going through this.

Last time I was in physical danger, I went to a behavioral health hospital. They are very high security.

Threats and violations of court orders are both illegal (in the United States, at least). Find a way to get to a safe place, and then do something. Prove to yourself that you can keep yourself safe.

Please take care

@Fadeaway if you are in fear for your safety then, while I understand you are reluctant to do so, I think it's important to reach out to someone where you are to help you.

making plans with professionals to reduce stress this week,

would this be a therapist? If so can you contact them and let them know the turn things have taken for you to see if they have any advice?

It's hard to know how we can help you with this situation from here without knowing more about the situation you are in, but it sounds like you need 'real world' type help with it.

I think that calling your T as soon as possible would be a good idea. They would be a good source of information about emergency services in your area. Going to the hospital would be another option. No one could get to you there.

Do you have any money at all? What about access to transportation?

Seconding this advice:

Last time I was in physical danger, I went to a behavioral health hospital. They are very high security.

Your therapist may be able to get you a referral or an admit.

 

[Muttly]

No good advice but I am very sorry you are dealing with this.

 

[Freida]

Can you call a Domestic violence hotline? They may be able to help with shelter for the time being -- and they are anonymous so they won't tell anyone where you went. They can also help with transportation and setting up a way to get out without raising alarms that you are leaving.

 

[Fadeaway]

I have found it impossible to get a professional to even listen. I understand the lack of information makes it extra difficult to advise me, so I ask for support and encouragement. I am making headway in resolving this, but it isn't a quick fix.

Hugs it sounds really tough going. No advice, but so glad the other members were able to come up with some suggestions.
