I am very much afraid of the dark, simply because, I can't see if something is coming towards me or even there.
I have a very active imagination and when it is dark, everything likes to start up in my imagination. I'll "see" ghosts of dead people that I have offended walking into my room or animals or things that I might see when I am in that state just between REM sleep where I am half awake but still experiencing a vestige of a nightmare...
I work at night, though so I don't have to sleep at night, usually. On the night I do sleep at night and my husband is at work, I sleep on the futon with the TV set on "sleep" and a movie that is either really boring or that I have seen before on. Either "The Joneses" or "Mean Girls". I turn it really low so it sounds like ambient sound and then I go to bed. But I wake up frequently during the night so the same movie might have been replayed 4 times by the time morning comes along.
Is it normal that i am 18, and scared of the dark?
