Is it normal that i am still afraid of the dark?
My imagination goes crazy and i can't help it. I know these monsters/ scary things aren't real, but its still gives me paranoia thinking about it if they are there or not.

Besides being absolutely terrified of belly buttons, the dark is my second biggest fear.
Yeah, I'm still not sure about the belly button thing. It's just weird.
Haha slenderman wasn't that from the show supernatural?? But back to this topic, yeah I think it's normal, I can definitely say that sometimes the darkness can make me feel somewhat uneasy anxious or paranoid and I let my imagination think of scary things even though I know its not real
It's fairly normal, up until I read this post I hadn't really thought about it but I am afraid of the dark as well. I sleep with my tv on every night because of the noise and the light it puts off. When I walk down the hallway at night I make sure that there is always a light on. Didnt even realize this about myself. Interesting!
It's perfectly normal to be afraid of the dark because darkness represents the unknown. Of course we'd be scared of something we're unsure of...or that is unknown to us. For example, death is a big one.
OMG.I thought I was the only adult to still be afraid of the dark. I am 41, have 3 children and its real hard to teach them not to be afraid of the dark when I am. In the middle of the night, I go to the bathroom and on the way back, I have to turn hall light off, cause the switch is next to the bathroom. If not, I have to leave it on all night, and who has the money for the extra electric. Anyways, I hate the trip back... At first I tell myself its ok...and dont start looking around, cause that causes me to see things and then bang into the wall, then bang into the wash basket... I am like a ball in a pinball machine...walking as fast as I can to get to the bedroom. Then I bang into the bedroom door and open it so fast a turn the light on instantly... and check the hallway. Then I get ready to turn the light off, (the tv is on, so some light is in the bedroom), and I must check the closet. If not I will keep looking at the closet and its dark in that corner, and I swear I see like a person or ghost or something. Its crazy... all this in the middle of the night. So, I think I will be afraid of the dark forever.. Their is worse fears then this.. lol
Im 18, i was actually was never really afraid of the dark. I imagined a good vampire is there or something. I was like, 7, when i realized i wasnt afraud of the dark. Now i love the dark!
Actually, some pretty weird shit happens at night. Under certain circumstances, even I am afraid.
