Any advice on how to get more resilient in Berlin?

I've been living for some years in Berlin and I'm counting the months until I get to move, due to work duties it's only possible in 2 years earliest. So yea, Berlin is not my city and if y… I've been living for some years in Berlin and I'm counting the months until I get to move, due to work duties it's only possible in 2 years earliest. So yea, Berlin is not my city and if you wanna tell me that if I don't like it here, I should gtfo so someone else can have my flat, I'm on it. Sooo, how do you not get crazy? How do you get resilient? Some background information: I've been living in a neighbourhood in which I don't feel safe for the past 2 years, I tried to move but couldn't, due to the fact that I have a very unstable income. I'm kinda stuck here, which is also one of the reasons I'm leaving Berlin. I am a small woman and almost every second day I'm somehow harassed when I go outside. Most of the times it's some junkies or weirdos and whereas in the beginning I was trying to ignore it by listening to music, I feel like I can't take it any longer. Last week a random weirdo followed me until the door of my Mietshaus. I noticed too late and it scared the shit out of me, though he was clearly on something but still. I am afraid to go outside and every little craziness sucks the life out of me. I stopped going outside after 10 pm, I'm trying to wear dark, not revealing clothes, now I'm thinking about what to do to get more resilient. Are there any 'fuck it' mindsets? Any advice? I know there are plenty of women who thrive in Kreuzberg, wedding, who love how fucked up it is, I'm just a crybaby who isn't made for it... How can I learn to be more like people who don't give a fuck?

What is the correct spelling for a street name that appears differently on multiple signs in Charlottenburg?

I noticed that the street name is spelled differently on three separate signs in the Charlottenburg area. Can anyone confirm the correct official spelling and whether this is a known issue?

Worth noting that Berlin street names have official umlaut and ß rules that trip people up, so a sign showing "Strasse" versus "Straße" is not actually a spelling error, just an older transcription. Same with "ue" versus "ü" (e.g. "Kantstrasse" vs "Kantstraße"), both are considered valid renderings and you'll see the ß version on the blue Schilder and the ss version on older plaques or in databases that predate Unicode. If the difference you're seeing is between those two forms, there's nothing to fix and both are technically correct.

if the signs u mean are the old enamel ones on the house facades those are often protected as Baudenkmal so nobody's allowed to correct them even if the spelling is outdated. the binding version is whatever is in the Berliner Strassenverzeichnis plus the entry in the Liegenschaftskataster, so if u tell me the street i can point u to the right Bezirksamt Mitte or Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf page. tbh the merged district thing is real but the facade signs are a separate story, theyre basically museum pieces at this point

honestly thats super common in Charlottenburg, the district offices were merged from older Bezirke and nobody ever fixed all the Schilder. if its a real street you can check the official strassenverzeichnis on berlin.de, that list is what the Burgeramt actually goes by. which street is it? some of the Kaiserdamm / Kantstrasse signs are notorious for this.
