Telling someone to get mental help based on a very short reddit post and a couple comments. Ahh internet, full of people who tell others to fk off, get cancer, go to hell, shut up, that they're stupid. Such admirable and productive methods.

The best thing you can do for yourself is get YOURSELF help. I know it sucks, I know you want and deserve Justice, but your health comes before any of that.

Seek mental help, therapy. Not because you’re crazy, because you went through something horrific and traumatizing. Our mental health has a very direct impact on our physical health.

I’m sure you have other physical issues going on as well as a result of the terrible circumstances, but since you said the doctors aren’t helping you maybe you should just take the path that helps you the most- getting the mental health checked!

I hope you can get the help you need. So sorry something like this happened to you and I’m sorry law enforcement is useless

As someone else said, you should also try getting an attorney when you are able. Lots of attorneys, especially those representing victims, will take on your case with no payment up front “pro bono”

Generally, avoid the northwest side and areas in or near downtown.

Though crime is high in the area, it is mostly domestic violence, drug, and gang related, which eans it is not that likely to affect a regular person unless you are involved personally.

There are several areas outside the concentrated city space that are good value homes, and suburbs like republic are options if you are willing to commute.

Note that the housing market is still a bit crazy.
