Im a 16 year old boy and I hate the dark. Whenever I go to sleep I need to have a light on and if it so much as flickers I get terrified. I'm not scared of anything being in the dark, just the darkness itself. Is this normal?
I used to be so afraid of the dark but I had this boyfriend to whom I could talk to only in the night because we were never free in the morning. I had to talk to him with lights closed so that I don't call attention on being awake at 3 lol as I used to talk to him on phonecalls in my dining room, not my bedroom as all the bedrooms in my house are at the same floor I didn't want anybody to wake up and hear me talking all loud. Due to this gradually my fear subsided as I would spend so much time in the dark at night but also wouldn't be all alone as I have him talking to me on the call keeping me diverted. Now I just prefer No lights.
My friend became afraid of the dark after a nasty house fire. There was black smoke and she had a hard time finding her way out because of it. She is fine now but sleeps with a night light. Did something bad like that happen before?
Ever read Steven King,kid? Look up a short story of his called the Boogey Man. Then turn off the lights and then look under your bed. Bet it scares the shit out if you!
