Is it normal that i fear thing i know aren't real?

Like, I avoid mirrors at night because I "fear" seeing something besides my reflection, when I hear something moving in my neighbour's apartment I immediately think of ghosts and I always run to my bed when I turn off the lights at night so nothing would grab my leg.Also, when I'm walking down the stairs at night I always think of that girl from Exorcist walking upside down and I always turn around and hurry up.

I want to point out that I don't believe these things are real, but I'm still kind of scared if it's night and I start thinking of scary movie scenes or scary dreams.

IIN?

    Since you know it isn't real just repeat that to yourself when it happens.

    Too normal. I'm also a little scared of bathrooms, halls, stairways, basements and attics at night :P

    "I'm sure this is all gonna sound really ridiculous and uh... I don't exactly expect anyone to believe all this. For the last little while I've been keeping correspondence with my sanity. And uhh, I really feel like I'm starting to lose interest in the letter writing process. The pieces of the letters just keep getting progressively shorter and shorter until it's not even a reply. I uhh, the whole thing just makes me really nervous, I just wish I could show u what a huge problem this is... I kind of have this really terrible habit of asking myself all these stupid questions, right? Like uhh, what if there's this spot on my body I can touch to keep my heart from beating? Or like, like what if, uhh there's this stray bullet that's gonna come through my window and take me out? What if there's this huge unstoppable comet that's just gonna like, destroy the earth and all of us? Like... What, what if it's happening right now?! How can avoid all these questions if I don't have that?- who is gonna be there to tell me it's all bullshit?"

    I hear ya. When I was a kid my sister told me this ghost story involving a witch, I can't remember details but I remember she said if you look in the mirror at night you will see the witch. Although I know my sister's story is fiction and I'm dubious when it comes to the supernatural I avoid mirrors at night.

      I like to go into a dark bathroom at night, look in the mirror and say, "Candyman Candyman Candyman."

    Why do you fear them? And your answer better not be "I don't know". There's a reason for everything.

      I guess I'm not 100% sure when it comes to that sort of thing.I mean, I'm 99.999999% sure nothing about it is real, but there is always what if
