I heard someone say that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting to get different results.

Every time I use public transit lately, I've been victim to assault.

I'm not the sort who goes spoiling for trouble. I'm just over there sitting quietly. Yet the way people act around me it's like I've got a target tattooed on my face. I have no idea why I've gone for forty years with few problems like this, yet now, this year, I've been attacked three times.

Part of the problem is that I rely on public transit to get around.

I just got attacked again earlier. I've complained to the transit authority, but little seems to be happening. They genuflect with the usual "we're an all-inclusive public service" but their words are only worth so much zero. It's just getting worse and now I'm stuck at home with no way to do anything. Nobody's listening. I'm so hopeless now I don't want to live. I know I certainly won't be able to live like this for very long: I have no car, no friends with a car to drive me places, and I have to buy groceries and see my doctor on a recurring basis for chronic health problems.

I really need help.
