I had a shock today. I am very frightened. I hope I remain stable. I almost witnessed a big fight right in front of me. There is this unstable, very angry person across the street. He was trying to pick a fight with my son in law whose is a very capable fighter. I was very scared that this was happening to me. I knew that if it started, that neighbor of mine would of ended up in the hospital. I never had this happen to me before. I am still frightened that neighbor will be banging on my door all out of control.

Now the reason I am posting this is that I may end up in a tailspin and be very depressed. When something like this shocks me, scares me, I can end up very depressedince since I feel my life has become out of control. I need to do something like grounding techniques, which I know little about. Maybe I should sleep in a hotel for the night. This fear is becoming overwhelming. I thought of calling a crisis line to have someone to talk to. Now that neighbor is texting me over and over. I feel helpless.

Does anyone have any ideas to help me? Just posting here can help me.
