Advice plz TW: sexual harassment

advice-plz-tw:-sexual-harassment

My therapist is booked for the month so I’m turning to Reddit for advice.

I was recently sexually harassed at the gym (a stranger man was jerking off to me outside of my gym while I was working out – cops couldn’t find him). I haven’t been able to sleep because every time I close my eyes I picture him standing there and I keep running the scenario over in my head on what I should’ve done and what could’ve happened to make it worse. This just happened a few days ago so the event is still fresh to me so I understand I need to let time pass however it’s really destructing me rn. I haven’t been able to go anywhere without having my dad or another protective figure come with me because I’m scared (not of the same person specifically but just in general). I just really want to get over it and wish I could forget it. Any advice welcome
