its quite easy to deal with such things. First of, try to think about what your fear in a logical and calm way. half the time our fears are irational. but this isnt going to make you feel much better. so for once, try not to watch any horror movies etc. cos otherwise u lie there and think "omg i hope a zombie wont come in my room and eat my brains... or molest me (incase u saw thriller from micheal jackson <.<"). turn the lights on, sit back and try to chill while watching tv or listen to some music that u like. Other things are that you could start watching horror movies with your friend. Just get together and watch a few horror movies every now and then during the afternoon and later start watching them during the night. U will notice that after a while you will feel less scared because you are confronted with those images more often and know that something like this would never happen anyway, which should help you with your fear of being alone at night.
also before you go to bed, try to think about nice things. a joke u heard a while ago, the girl you have a cush on/or ur girlfriend, good times u had with ur friends etc. it gives you peace and makes you stop thinkin about scary stuff, so u can have a restfull sleep.



write down what you think the worst case scenario could be then think about it rationally, so you will realize there's nothing to be afraid of.
For instance, if you think that a deer will shoot you, realistically, what are the chances that a deer would own a gun. haha
I'm 15, i wouldnt be comfortable with being home alone at night, and neither are my friends.

thinking to much sometimes



well, about the way to old thing.. im turning 20 this year and im scared to be home alone.. my house is so big n it makes awefully creepy noises. i tend to hide in my room and check the locks a bazillion times, the only way i can handle it is to watch a real funny movie with my back against the wall so nothign can sneak in. i invite a mate over when possible and then im fine. i have tried thinking about what im actually scared of and its usually some crazy mad man with a chainsaw so i just think that i wont worry until i hear a chainsaw.. i have a cat who is great company. im sorry im not really helping, just thought it would be nice for u to no u arnt to old



PEACE I LEAVE WITH U, MY PEACE I GIVE UNTO U, NOT AS THE WORLD GIVES DO I GIVE TO U; LET NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED NEITHER LET IT BE AFRAID.

These words are from Jesus, words to us(: in the bible (JOHN 14:27)

GOD BLESS U!

LIFE: the ups and the downs



I'm 16 and scared to be home alone but I am quite often so I trained in the art of using the sai (dual wielding steel weapons) and when I am home I keep them close by since I got pretty good with them.
