Is it normal to irrationally fear being attacked at night?

Ever since I was little I've been scared of the dark but then I grew out of that but I've remained fearful of being attacked in my sleep so I always sleep with my back to a wall preferably a room with few windows and a weapon close at hand.Is this normal?

    It's normal. When you're asleep it's the most vulnerable you can possibly be.
