Is it normal to be scared of the dark??

You aren't afraid of the dark, you're scared of what's in the dark.

im 25 n sleep with a night light, even when i sleep with some one else im scared, im scared of a clown or a ghost or just some horrible creature that would come out n get me, im scared of seeing something creepy in the shadows or next to my bed... like "WHAT'S MY NAME?(70801)"said, im scared of whats in the dark or what could come out of the dark places.

I still sleep with a night-light, and my heater gives off a light, too. I can't stand being in the dark alone.

Admit it, you aren't afraid of the dark, you are afraid of what is in the dark.

same here

I'm scared of the dark.. >_>

I'm terrified of the darkk!!

I'm 18, and I'm the same... It's a natural instinct that you are afraid of the unknown, what you can't see. Just think that there's nothing in there... That there's NO WAY a monster, or ghost or anything like that would appear just to scare you, that they just don't exist. Try to keep your head cold by thinking with logic.

Of course it's normal, I'm scared of the dark too, I like at least a little light here and there. And I'm also slightly scared of monsters as well. In the daytime you think "Lol, monsters aren't real" But at night in a quiet room you begin to think otherwise. It's just the atmosphere that does it, not the darkness.

I used to be scared of the dark. But then I realised it was no different to being in the light, but with my eyes closed. The same stuff is out there; I just couldn't see it. After that, I was scared of noises. Gunshots, people trying the front door, something knocking the bins over.

Ironic, as I've only ever been mugged in broad daylight.

Have u talked to your parents see what they say

I'm almost seventeen and I'm petrified of the dark, I sleep with the bathroom light on and I can only sleep in the dark when someone else is in the room with me.
