One data point here: I was sexually assaulted last year and I didn't even begin to even start thinking about going to the police because I don't trust them.
I obviously can't and wouldn't tell you or anyone else to do, but I was stunned to find last year when I reported my stalker that the criminal side of the process was easy, warm and compassionate, and the civil side (pursuing a restraining order) was a months-long nightmare

Ah yes I'm down with that but for some reason I imagine getting a restraining order doesn't require me to interact with actual police

It doesn't; it does require interacting with a judge (or, in my case, three successive judges, two of which appear to have been leeched of their souls)
