I'm 16 years old and I'm alone in my house.
I know that many people will laugh at me,but I'm afraid of darkness.
And it is because I have painful memories from the past and which I don't want to talk about.
I need some advice really,my house is situated on a small hill and my nearest neighbour is ten miles away.
The electricity isn't working well,just yesterday it was turned off all night.I was so scared that I was able to hear my heartbeats.
I feel uneasy...
Please keep in mind that I live in Croatia.
What should I do?

keep a flash lite in your room at all times that way if the lites go out you have it and try to remember that there is nothing that will hurt you in the dark its just shadows of the things you own . and when alone always lock your doors and windows never answer the door for no one hope this helps i have had problems with the dark my self till i was 21 and now i do much better and i am now 25 so don't ever be afraid to tell some one you are scared very one is scared of something just not all of us wont to say it out load but i have found by talking about out load it helps. good luck and i hope you can someday find peace from with in

I'd probably be able to give you some better advice if I knew what those painful memories were. For example, if your experience was that your house was leaking gas and a fire started, I'd advise you to keep your door and windows open, and to have a smoke alarm. However, if your experience was that someone tried to sneak into your bedroom with the intent of harming you in any way, then my advice would be to lock your door, put a nightlight in your room and to talk to your parents about this.

Get a flashlight and keep it right next to you while you sleep.
I have the same problem. Night is very scary for me. I have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I sleep with my TV on almost every night.

draw close in there my appropriate angel and understand this...your mom would be only superb bodily and whilst she comes homestead she's gonna desire your love and help. Having a miscarriage would be very devastating to a girl. HUGS!!!!

well its all in your mind and you need to fight it!! the best thing to do is go get yourself a flashlight and light as many candles as you can and put it everywhere in your house and maybe call a friend and ask her to stay with you or call more than one so you guys wont be scared.

I am 20 and i am still scared of the dark. My husband jokes with me about it, but if you are scared of something there is really nothing you can do about it.
