first of all i would suggest paying more attention to your surroundings, its pretty clear from your question that you didnt look where you were going and you ended up lost and paniced. every scene comes with a trusty arrow pointing in the right direction, its quite easy to find if you dont lose your cool, remain calm, keep your head on your shoulders. failing this i would send a request to the TW, the Talented wanderers, they are the best at finding their way around and helping the lost find their way, for FREE, and without any risk of injury, unlike the DS which are "advising" you to hurt yourself so they can extort money from you, which quite frankly is typical of any legal service, do not fall into the same mistake that many before you have.
keep your head up,
