In the past I have been jumped many times. In some instances a baseball bat was involved, and I was hospitalized. Ever since then I don’t trust anybody. So I got rid of all my friends. I don’t go out unless I have to so I rarely talk to anybody. When someone knocks on the door I instantly stand at a militaristic position ready to guard. Sometimes I don’t think about it but I patrol the area of a building or around my home. I look for threatening or life-threatening circumstances. I even wake up in a self-defensive mode. Is this normal since I got jumped?

This is a typical reaction to such a trauma. I sometimes feel this way, but I have to fight it or I become a prisoner to it. Yes, it's a big, scary world out there. That's why I think many people learn a martial art or self-defence course. It helps you get some control back. I still haven't mastered the art of trusting people, but I find a great comfort in having pets....unconditional love.

I went home from work one night and found the house had been burgled, and the house had been turned into a tip. For the next couple of years, I dreaded putting the key in the front door. But I eventually grew out of it.
You seem to have had more than your share of bad luck. Already suggested, see a psychiatrist, I think you need it.
But there are lots of lovely people out there. Make new friends. Don't let this wreck the rest of your life.
Good luck.

You should get some help dealing with your fears. Obviously it took a toll on you but you can not and should not let it dominate and ruin your entire life. You need to be able to take back the control that you feel that was taken away from you when you were jumped. When you choose to live your life like that you are in essence giving in to the person who jumped you, Please don't let that person ruin your entire life, you deserve so much more than your giving your self right now. By getting help to deal with this you will be saying, it's my life and I'm the one in control not the person who jumped you.
