Is it normal to feel this

Anytime I'm in the bathroom taking a shower or washing my face, I can't close my eyes for more than 2 seconds. I always feel like there is somebody else in the bathroom. I enjoy taking a shower but closing my eyes is really hard for me.

I feel the same when I'm in church and it's time to pray. I can't close my eyes in peace. I always end up opening my eyes and looking around.

I honestly don't fear the dark or any other thing. Is this normal?

    I also feel I "can't close my eyes" for longer times while in the shower, but I don't feel there is anyone there it just feels creepy in itself

    I experience that when I am scared of something
    Watch less horror movies and question the existence of demons. They are not real to me and I am happy.

    fuck that sounds terrifying. I used to have the thing when I was a kid where I was afraid of closing my eyes because the scary face would appear. I would just like to ask though, how tf do you sleep?

    • Idk, I'm not afraid of the dark as long as I'm in the house with all windows and doors closed.

      It only happens in the bathroom and in church. Or sometimes when I'm walking in a very quiet place.

      I'm honestly addicted to horror movies. But I'm trying to stop watching them. I want to stop fearing things that I'm not supposed to fear.

        Honestly, I thought watching horror movies would make you less scared, by desensitising you. I used to be terrified of horror movies, wouldn't be able to sleep for months. But now as an avid horror fan nothing really scares me anymore. But I guess having creepy movies playing all the time could disturb your mind. Try to mix in some romcoms or something.

    Do you drink coffee before showering? Have you had enough sleep? I think it's paranoia... I use to think that somebody is always following me at night or morning when I haven't enough sleep or I had too much coffee. Coffee makes people Nervous and paranoid.

    Are you Catholic? Demons are all over the place, especially churches and bathrooms.

    I get it, and I would say it is normal to an extent, but you should stop watching horror movies etc. Good luck
