Terry,
I can relate to that... after getting mugged and beaten half to death, I am always scared and on guard when i'm out of my house!! I don't know if that feeling will ever go away for me or not, but for now I just try not to let it run my life, except that it IS running my life! I get very scared outside of my house! I don't know if that's how you feel or not... if it is, you are NOT alone!!
