Is it normal to be scared of the ocean?

By looking at a picture of the ocean, it scares me. It scares me because it makes me feel like the world is just a vast openness of lonely crowds of water. I am probably scared of the ocean cuz im scared to be alone, it makes me feel like someone or something is looking in my soul. Is this Normal?

    The ocean is the ocean. What we feel towards it is caused by our own prejudice. All in all, it does look lonely though. Imagining yourself out in the middle of the dessert is better than being in the middle of the ocean. It's like a whole other dimension, scream for help and nothing. Float, just float and to have nothing to anchor your feet unto is creepy. Thinking especially about the things that pass under your floating form is especially terrifying.

      It's funny that you mention that. Being caught in a riptide is a recurring dream that I have. I always swim parallel to the shore to get out of it. Then I walk back up on the beach and feel good about everything. Weird dream.

    Im extremely scared of the ocean.
    One of my worst fears is being stranded in the middle of the ocean.

    The ocean is scary, we know nothing about what dwells in the deepest areas.
