uncontrollable anxiety/panic after sexual assault

I was at the club while traveling and another woman sexually assaulted me. Since then, I have not been able to go out in public or even talk on the phone. I get extreme panic attacks and feel the need to clean myself in the shower 24/7. Terrified. No family support (lengthy neglect history)… very scared and my psych NP prescribed me prazosin. I am reminded of my sexual assault not only recently but also the one in the psych emergency room by a male nurse when I was overdosed on gabapentin. Feels like I’m in constant hell and no safe place. Feels like hands are groping me, nonstop flashbacks, being drugged, grabbed, dying, no escape. I genuinely don’t know what to do and I am so disabled after this recent assault and lack of support that I am thinking about killing myself. I can’t take it anymore. I just want to be dead. I don’t want to live and it’s greedy of me to take up this life. I completely hate myself. I don’t want to even talk in public anymore because I feel so abused and demoralized and ashamed. Like a fucking slut and drug abuser because my doctors made me addicted to Lyrica and refuse to believe that I need help for Lyrica addiction. I might run out onto the road or something. Not ok. Terrified of ever losing my autonomy again and having a woman who assaulted another woman and hurt me violently and emotionally attacked me ruined my life. I have no where to get help. Psychiatry doesn’t help. It’s likely this prazosin will harm me immensely with side effects and I have bipolar disorder and am already depressed. Can’t fucking feel free anymore. Tied to abuse and horrified. Sorry. I don’t understand even. Just exhausted and dissociated. Shrinks don’t understand. they don’t get it and they fake feeling bad for others.

The only thing stopping me from suicide is criminalization of my mental health.

I >!would swallow a bottle of pills and drown myself or jump off a bridge or something. I have a history of overdoses but I would be sure to use lethal drugs this time… not just vodka and pills. Fucking done with my life. Exhausted. Fuck psychiatry. I can’t do it because I can’t risk being almost killed in a mental hospital ever again. Psychopathic predators and psychiatric assaulters. I am so sick of this life.!< >!Decriminalize mental health now.!< >!Abolish psychiatry. I am slowly disappearing and that’s fine. just venting on here.!<

Psychiatry ruined my life through a misdiagnosis

I feel so disgusted and horrified, three years after the initial trauma. Feels dead inside and I am being forced to live. After what happened to me, I wish I had been just killed ethically. I am so so tired. I will never be okay. My misdiagnosis was intentional and the police never responded to my active fraud, harassment, and malpractice. I dream of dying and taking my life so they can do an autopsy and the horrors of my misdiagnosis would show. Just gone. 😢 so terrified and I've been off all psych drugs for three years. Terrified of all doctors.
