After being a victim of a crime or violent encounter, your immediate problems are over, but some long-term items are starting. Here are a couple things to think about.
- Right after the encounter a police officer will want to know what happened. As you explain it, it will all come back to you; sites, sounds, smells, feelings, but the details will be fuzzy.
- As time goes by the details will start coming back and you’ll remember more and more of the details.
- You may relive the worst moments when you’re alone or when you sleep. When you are stressed it may come more often.
- The worst is, you may relive the encounter with worse and worse things happening in your mind.
- Everyone will want to know what happened and hear about it. Unless someone was there with you, they probably won’t understand.
- Everyone has a way to solve your problem, but most will not work.
Time is the one thing that heals all wounds. With time you can get through anything. Just keep in mind, you can do anything with enough time.
Stay Safe,
Ben
