We had a house fire. I went through exactly the same thing. Fires are terrifying. You were only five but you were smart you knew it was the best thing to be scared. You understood at only five that fire is so dangerous that it can kill you. You got yourself out of that house at aged only five. You made a brilliant choice.
Unless you have experienced how fast fires can really move people do not understand the impact it can have on you. You did not understand at five, what the real consequences of the fire may be. Help yourself now. I rang my local fire brigade and told them my experience. Your mum could help you do this. They are really helpful. They have special promotional material and videos that will tell you the facts so it is not as scary. Do you feel you could tell your teacher? He may be able to help you do this too.
Fire Drills are good. Fire drills save lives. It is probably because your family had experienced fire drills that they went into automatic action. The natural thing to do is what you did. To watch and not move. This is shock. As a five year old you were not trained to deal with the shock by acting to save your life. But like I said you were smart you got yourself out of there by following others. Now I am guessing that you are a lot older now and a lot smarter. You can deal with this. It is a good thing to be scared of real dangers. That is what keeps us safe. You are a survivor. You can easily deal with a fire drill which is just training to help you know how to save other little 5 year olds in the future.

the best way to avoid trouble is listen carefully and follow instructions given by someone with authority.
even if it were for real, there are many ways out in an emergency and there is probably someone more afraid than you! maybe use the buddy system and ask for a firedrill partner pairup before the horns start blowing and bells start ringing! just dont freak out. convince yourself its always a drill. so even if there was a real fire, your going to know what to do!

Schools and hospitals are very safe places to be during a fire, the people that build them think a lot about how to keep them safe, they build them mostly of stuff that doesn't burn, install sprinklers and sensitive smoke alarms, that are indeed noisy, bright and kinda scary. Try having a fire drill at home with your family first. Be sure your'e the one who gets to push the test button on the smoke alarm

If I were in your position I would skip school tomorrow. I mean, don't lie to your parents about it. Just explain it to them. In a way it is a legitimate illness to stay home from school for. I have a phobia of roaches and if I knew that one was going to be in my class, I wouldn't go. However, there will be more and you'll need to find a different solution. As embarassing as it might sound, I would talk to a teacher you trust about it. Tell him/her about your fear and ask if you can somehow leave the building while it is going on. If that doesn't work, try to keep your mind on anything else and plug your ears!

all the different posters are superb suited those letters are pretend. the fact of the difficulty is each and each time somebody sends a collection letter there's a application related to the letter that reads and saves each and all of the e-mail handle which you deliver them to ,sending the advice to the author of the letter. In turn the author of the letter sales the handle to those who deliver you junk mail, it relatively is have been your junk mail comes from in case you ever ask your self how they get your e mail. that's all approximately funds and that's it. do no longer unfastened sleep over this kay, you no longer in basic terms would be advantageous by using deleting those yet you would be saving particularly some your human beings from coping with stupid junk mail e-mails.

Talk to your teacher or guidance counselor. They may have some advice to help you get through this.
