Does anyone here worry about being a target for crime?

I seem to worry alot about it. I worry that if i dress up and look nice buy nice things wear nice clothes people are going to assualt me rob me or worse. Its honestly controling my life. I honestly have this fear that people are spying on me and watching what i do

I used to have the fear that someone would abduct me and torture me…it was residual paranoia…I no longer believe this…but then again. I live in a small town where this doesn’t happen…if I lived in a city I would be more paranoid. I’m sorry you feel this way.

Yes especially with intrusive thoughts

I worry about being a target of crimes and scams. My stepmom recently said we live in a dangerous neighborhood. I’ll hopefully be moving soon but probably only about five blocks away and I’ll still have to come back here to my dad’s house every day to give the dog potty breaks.

The area I live in currently is pretty chill but I should probably keep my guard up. I don’t want those Hood survival instincts to go away.

I watch those “most strange things caught on doorbell cams” videos on YouTube at night and I’ll get up out of bed and make sure all the windows in the apartment are closed and locked. Those are some scary videos of strange people acting bizarrely at peoples front doors, caught on doorbell cams.

I sometimes feel like someone is trying to snipe me through my window. Makes me afraid.

Mmm seems like an unhealthy delusion

I live in the state with the most violent crimes in the country and I walk through apartment complexes, town and to gas stations with money on me.

I’d like to think I could handle myself, but my point is I’m never thinking about getting robbed and it also doesn’t happen

I go for long walks in the poorer part of town but i never carry valuables with me. I don’t worry about crime…my truck was stolen from my apartment parking lot 5 years ago and wrecked, so the criminals live in my complex anyway. I’m glad i have a dog who’s big enough to look mean and sounds meaner! But she wouldn’t hurt a fly. If someone tried to hurt me i would fight back, but it’s never happened in all the 12 years I’ve lived here. It’s just theft, mostly…

I’m always afraid of being scammed online or over the phone. Its a constant worry. It even crosses over into paranoia level very often. I’m suspicious of everybody. Even family and friends.

I’m vulnerable and an easy target for criminals so yes it’s a little worrying.

I would worry more about people you associate with. I’m threatened for going out with someone.

I live in the ghetto part of town. The gas stations are sketchy at night. Other than that I don’t worry much. I feel maybe I should. I got friends in nice neighborhoods that seem more worried than I am. They all have guns.
