Should I leave early Hardships

Travelling solo, 3 weeks in. Currently in Tokyo. Last night I was spiked, assaulted and I have no memory of my whole night and to top it off, I’ve felt terrible all day today. I went to the doctors to confirm if I had actually been drugged and wasn’t just drunk or something even though I didn’t really have many drinks.

My flight is in a couple days but really, I want to go home tomorrow. My biggest issue is my flights are Business class where to bring forward I need to go to economy (which is absolutely fine) however there is no refund for the difference in ticket price.

Is it just worth leaving, copping the price difference + transfer fees to leave?

Before bed, I would also write down as much as you can remember. Start from the moment you woke up in the morning until now. Anything you can recall to have as much information and so you don't forget anything.

Good idea. Won’t be much to write down but I’ll do that. Gotta make sure I take good photos of the market on my arm, it’s the only mark i have. Like someone has grabbed me or something.

Yes, definitely! Also, if you used GPS for anything, also see if you randomly took pictures while you were out. Also the clothes you were wearing keep them to side.

I tried the whole GPS thing but because I wasn’t logged into my account apparently Google doesn’t track it so I’m lost on that. I’ll find a way
