That sounds like a terrifying experience. Being attacked unexpectedly, especially in a place where you should feel safe, like on your way home, can be really shocking and upsetting. How are you feeling right now after this incident?

It's completely understandable to feel scared after such a traumatic experience. Being attacked can make you feel vulnerable and uneasy, especially in a place that used to feel safe. It's important to acknowledge these feelings and know that it's normal to feel this way. Is there anything specific that's worrying you right now, or anything you think might help you feel a bit safer?

i am scared to take the same path home

It's normal to feel apprehensive about taking the same path home after what happened. Your sense of safety has been shaken, and it's okay to feel this way. If it's possible, you might consider altering your route for a while, just to give yourself some peace of mind. Sometimes, a small change like this can help you feel more in control and a bit safer. Also, if you haven't already, consider talking to someone you trust about this experience, or even to a professional who can provide guidance and support. Remember, it's important to take care of your emotional well-being after such an event.
