  • I always have visions of a masked man running full speed into my room, I mean I would never have enough time to assess the situation let alone protect myself! It would be horrible, he'd run in directly at me with a knife and kill me...I'd barely get a chance to open my eyes, I think I'd just glance in shock before I get slaughtered violently and then probably raped...if he done it fast enough what then? What if he then done the same to my family? If he done it fast enough I wouldn't even have time to scream to warn them, hmm...

    ANYWAY!!!! Don't mean to scare you, I doubt you will get murdered in your sleep.

  • I thought this said you were afraid of being killed by a sheep

  • ^You would think but it's terrifying going to sleep and wondering if you'll ever wake up. At least when you're awake you can combat Death but there's nothing there to guard you in your sleep.

    At that point you are the most vulnerable.

  • maybe if you live in a ghetto but otherwise it's abnormal and you need to let it go

  • lock your door or jam a chair under the handle and sleep like a baby:)

  • If you are afraid of being killed before you have the chance to wake up, why keep a knife under your pillow?

  • I'm afraid of a little girl (who looks much like the grudge or the woman in black) coming to stab me in my sleep I'm so scared that I put off sleeping unless someone else is awake in the house and I have to face a certain way otherwise I'm more likely to get stabbed or if I feel like they are behind me and I'm facing the wrong way I stop myself from breathing so she thinks I'm "already dead" it sounds stupid but what would this be classed as?

  • Simple answer - drink strong coffee 24/7 and don't go to sleep!

  • I used to do something similar when I was little. I had this habit of pacing up and down the halls of my house around 3 o'clock in the morning out of fear someone was going to break in or set the house on fire.

  • seriously..? getting killed in your sleep is probably way more quick and peaceful than the cancer that will probably devour your body eventually...to be killed in your sleep is a blessing...i hope u are lucky enough to accomplish this cause cancer sux :)

  • I'm afraid the train by our house will crash into us. But I seriously doubt that would happen.

  • Surely that's the best way to be killed because you wouldn't know anything about it.

  • Its normal. Do you have a family feud, live in a crappy crime-ridden place, have an assassin on your tail, a gang enemy?

  • That's not normal at all, unless you live in the ghetto or something.
