Maybe you need the time to actually talk about it, that's fine take all the time you need. But whatever happened learn from it and be wiser about it.

Depends on what it is, you can always talk to someone anonymously first. But if its a mistake you made, you should be honest and tell your boss. Or if someone is hurting or threatening you, its best to speak up.

Take it slow, start by writing it down to get it off your chest, then when your ready, take the next step to tell someone who is close to you.

Most work areas have a non-retaliation rule in place that protects employees. If you are worried about that, look into that. If it's talking about in general, then take a deep breath. Whatever is making you afraid doesn't make you less of a person. You are strong. You are amazing. Ruling the world doesn't have to be in the way of power of businesses or the state but of your life. You are powerful. You can rule your world. You can fight through anything. There is always a way. I promise there is always a way through the darkness.

Talk to someone - friends, family, even a supervisor or Human resources. Your own mind will tear you apart if you keep it hidden. You'll thank yourself later you did. By keeping it bottled inside, you're just beating yourself up. When you have a cut or bruise, you treat it right? Do the same psychologically with the incident at work. If there was harassment involved, take it to the right person. Don't let someone get away it! You are more important than anyone else, remember that. You matter. Your life matters. Treat yourself with respect and say something to someone. I believe in you.
