I'm always the last one to go to bed, so i turn off the light.
I want to keep the light on but my mum says she can't sleep with the light on for some 'Bizzare' reason.

Every time i turn off the light i quickly run to my bed and hide myself under the sheets. :$

I feel there is a presence in my house - I don't know if its my sister messing around.

This is a really stupid thread but i can't be in my 20's and carrying on like this.

Any suggestions on this?

Don't laugh please.

Turn your light off and brace yourself and just see how long you can stand in the dark for.

The door is always open and its the same with the curtains - Just not much light coming in! :(

You should try living across from a street light, always had light coming into my bedroom :( The council hightened them though after requests :)

I have one of them, hehe

I used to be scared of the dark, always had this feeling that someone was there and always had nightmares but i kinda just grew out of it

maybe it will eventually just go, just try and stay calm

there probably is a presence in your house, i don't blame you for being scared..

just make sure it doesn't get you when you turn the lights off.

you could always get a bedside lamp close your door and have that on all night so your mother can't see it

Why Manchester United out of all the teams? At least they can actually play football. ;)

K well, get a long piece of rope and tie it to your bed, hold the other end and walk to the light switch, then as soon as you switch your lights of shut your eyes and start singing frosty the snowman, then walk to your bed keeping your eyes shut, the rope will direct you to your bed. Once at your bed, open your eyes and try to imagine a horse eating cabbage, now just climb into your bed and go to sleep.

Turn the light off and close your eyes listening to your listening to your ipod, but not to loud. It helps me sleep

Just turn it off and deal with it, you'll probably be frightend and won't sleep for a few days, maybe even weeks but you'll eventually sort yourself out, I'm sure everyone has had trouble with this at some point in their lives (Most people younger though but you're not alone) and the only way to solve it is to confront it.

If you really want to stop being scared of the dark, you've got to be prepared to go out your comfort zone, there's no other way of solving it.

The thought of having more streetlights in the street will make me more scared - There spooky lights. :P But i don't think the council would listen to a 14 requesting more streetlights because hes scared of the dark! :P

Oh thanks alot for that! I think it could be my sister checking up on me.
I'll have a word and tell her not to scare me! :P

Imagine my mum comes in the room dress in a white cloak for a joke and scares me. I shoot her.... Nice idea though but i don't want holes in my Bedroom, Charged with murder and fire arms offense. =]




Anyway, got a night light from Next. Hopefully i will have no more sleepless nights. :)

I guess you are corrupted by myth or horror movie.

I guess you fear the unknown (ghost)

Just ask yourself, do ghost exist?
If they do, are they really harmful?
If they wanna harm you, can u really run?
Maybe We Human are ghost to them, they may be another type of species in the other dimension.
