I Don’t Feel Comfortable Anymore

I’m posting this anonymously because I don’t really know how to talk about this without sounding paranoid.

I’m a mom of two. My husband works long hours, and most of my days are pretty normal . Taking the kids to school, running errands, going to the gym, grabbing groceries, or meeting a friend for coffee.

But lately, I keep getting this feeling that someone is paying attention to me.

Not in an obvious way. Nobody has walked up to me. Nobody has threatened me. I don’t have proof.

It’s just little things.

A car taking some of the same turns as me.

Someone nearby who seems to look away too fast.

A phone held up in my direction just long enough to make me uncomfortable.

Then when I look again, everything seems normal.

That’s why I haven’t said much. I don’t know who I would even accuse. I don’t know if it’s the same person, different people, or if I’m just stressed and noticing things more than usual.

But I don’t feel comfortable ignoring it anymore.

I’m scared to tell my husband because I don’t want him to think I’m overreacting. I’m scared to tell my friends because I don’t want them to think I’m being dramatic.

Has anyone else ever felt like this?

Should I start writing things down?

Should I tell someone?

Or am I overthinking normal stuff?

I honestly don’t know what to do.
