your supervisors can also up the security in general so that others dont have to go through what you posted.
my suggestion contact your supervisor and your treatment providers, they can help you with all that needs to be done to ensure your safety and mental wellbeing while treating those addicts and people in crisis that you posted above about.

Thank you.
The people I’m encountering while walking to my car aren’t clients; they’re just people who are walking in the same area. I think it’s because there is a bus stop right there, so there are people going from the bus to the underpasses to do drugs, etc. it doesn’t happen often that I have issues with anyone, but for some reason I had four encounters in one week! It was out of the norm luckily!
If a client is unruly, which isn’t often, I do report it to the boss, especially since I note everyone interaction with clients to the file. My boss gets bothered by more people on the street than I do! They don’t like the way he walks or something, he says.
