My fear of the dark is irrational and I know it. I have
always been fearful of it and what it hides. I feel like one day its going show
me something terrible. The weird thing is that I am not afraid of the darkness
once my eyes adjust to the light it's the few seconds in which I am blinded
that make me panic. This has been presented to me in the shape of numerous
nightmares and every time I go to sleep. When I was little I remember having a
recurring nightmare in which we lived in the future after the end of the world
(weird I know) and that we had to place a strand of hair exactly in a key to
not be ripped apart. It was a weird nightmare complete with monsters and death
but I didn't shake it until I was well into my teenage years. I remember waking
up in the dark and feeling even more scared. It probably didn't help that one
of my favorite shows often depicts psychopaths murdering people at night and in
their sleep.
