Anaylze why you're having these problems. Is there any threat from an ex relationship or friend or anything? Is there any recent murders or anything in your town or city? If so, try talking to your parents about this, tell them you're really scared. If you have a dog, try sleeping with it at night, so it would bark if an intruder came in. If you don't then try a night light, it seems childish but if it makes you feel better then go ahead. Go through safety measures with your family, make sure there's no unlocked doors or windows. Also, for protection, try carrying around some mace where ever you go and if need be, when I was younger I stuck a knife under my mattress just to make sure. Remember, it's okay to be scared and your parents will understand, it's not the safest world.

Another way you can handle this is to mabye sleep in your parent's bed room a couple of nights..or mabye turning the light on in your room for awhile. If you have a tv in there..you could try to turn it on while you sleep. As for during the day..you could try walking with a friend..that way you will always be safe. =] hope i helped!
