Afraid of...
I'm very afraid of storms and wind at night. I have to hand my hands over my ears to fall asleep. My heart just pounds and pounds. If the storm gets really bad, or loud for that matter, I go sleep my parents or my mom comes to sleep in my bed.
The sound of wind or thunder or rain is what scares, as well as power outages. Now that it is winter, it is a bit stormy almost every night, and it's horrible.
How can I rid myself of this terrible fear?
P.S. I am afraid right now, as it is 7:30 pm and it is windy and rainy.

I know u are scared of the noise, but what about the noise are you scared of? Noises cant do anything to you. If you are scared of their booming sound, get earplugs to reduce it, or wear earplugs and earmuffs and stuff. Really you need to target what about loud strange noises you are scared of. Once you figure that out you may find a better solution. When you grow older, make your room soundproof maybe. Sadly we cant stop nature. As for me, i hate germs and gross looking things that i know many germs are growing all over. Im scared of them making me sick, but we have antibiotics, and i rarely get sick anyways, but i hate them, just because they look gross, but I've tried this method ant it works so hopefully it will help you too.

try getting one of those cd's that sound like its raining and thundering. the nature ones, go in your room(during the day)and turn off your light, close your windows and blinds. play the music..get used to it, and just try to lay in your bed..getting used to something takes awhile, you have to adjust your mind setting to be able to accept things. if you get used to that eventually do it at night and within time you should be able to get through storms moreand more.
Good Luck(:

See a counselor or therapist about it. A professional should be able to help you. This is something that you'll need to get over if you don't want it to affect your life. Your parents should be very supportive of it. I wish you lots of luck. :)

Hm. This is quite difficult to explain. When I was 4 i used to be deathly afraid of rain storms but as i got older i accepted them as part of nature. Just try this whenever you hear the wind or the rain of thunder and lighting and it scares you think of the happiest thing you can possibly think of weather it be ice cream or a day in some relaxing place think of it and bring it close to your heart allow it to warm you and comfort you
