  • As you already guessed, is your fear not regular.
    After a traumatic event (which can be something that scared you as a child, a catastrophe or abuse) you can develop a post-traumatic stress dissorder. This can be expressed in flashbacks (known from veterans) or in a milder form like an irrational fear of whatever scared you as a Kid.
    If that fear hinders you in your normal life, I would talk to a specialist. Talking it over and confronting yourself with that fear should help =)

    • Thanks for taking the time to answer. I'm trying to think of what may have caused this, but I can't recall any time in my life when this fear wasn't already present. I have some extremely early memories of this fear!!
