Scary shit, but there will be better days
3 years ago
Hi all!! Been a while since i've posted a journal, but i'm still here!
Thankfully! I'm, very happy to be alive.
I,, feel the need to bring this up somewhere, because i don't wanna like, dm or disturb everyone on discord about it, but i do want people to know,, cuz i've told the story what feels to be about a hundred times now,, and it just gets more painful each time. I'm way more shaken than I'd like to be.
This gets real below, please do not read if you're sensitive to this kind of stuff, because it is real, scary shit, and i don't want others to stress too too hard over me. (Will have a safer less detailed tl;dr version underneath the spoilered telling of the incident below)
For those that didn't know, I've been working overnights at my local gas station for a little over a year now. I live in the middle of nowhere in a safe and secluded village that i'm really grateful to have grown up in, separated from most of the scary shit in the world. On 12/21/2022, I worked overnight that night, and I was robbed. A disguised customer, who i'm 100% certain isn't from around here, came in with a sledge hammer, not a gun thank god,,, but he was very verbally threatening, and he even threatened my life. He demanded me to give him the money from the register and the most expensive cigarettes,, all the while smashing in things with said sledge hammer. I, obeyed, and was very compliant, because i believe my life more important than anything in that store. Even so,, i just, feel awful. Like i wish there was more i could have done,, but i followed the store's rules to a T, and i'm alive because of that. Everytime i play it back in my head i'm hit with emotion and fear,, because any one of those things he smashed, could have been me... It's terrifying to think about, but i can't stress enough, to others AND myself, that i am okay, and i am safe, i'm just very, understandably shaken by this horror of an incident.
The safer tl;dr is that i got robbed working at the store i work at, i was threatened, and could have lost my life. but i didn't, i am safe, and i will be okay,, I just, need to take some time to recover.
I want to thank you all for supporting me, not just because of this shit, but through all the years i've been around and present on FA and discord, I truly love all my friends, respect all you acquaintances and peaceful strangers, and i most certainly appreciate all of you that don't rob stores and traumatize others like this. Thank you all for all the support.
I'm going to keep spreading the good vibes, got lots of fun stuff ahead once i'm through the nastiness! Until then, please keep up the positivity, because happiness makes life worth living. It's something I value greatly and want for all, and i can't wait to be through this mess to hopefully, keep making y'all smile.
