phobias
16/f
i grew up with a phobia, and that would be ghosts. i don't even like looking at the word, because whenever it pops up i always tend to turn around and look around me. it scares me... it all started when i was younger and all people would talk about are spirits and myths about them. when i was younger it was too the point where i have to sleep with a night light (i still do), i always run through my hallway to the bathroom or something like that, i get really scared, i can't sleep unless i'm really tired or i know one of my family members are still awake. and i try thinking about something else when i'm alone in the bathroom or something. and now it's somewhat to the point where i'm now scared of japanese people, not all but some. and why is that, is because they make those scary movies and i've always hated scary movies. i realized this just yesterday when i was working (i work at a japanese sushi restaurant) and this japanese man walked in. right away, i knew he was japanese and the one thing that popped into my head was my phobia. is there a way where i can try forgetting about it and think about something else and help me get over it? please?

I used to be JUST LIKED THIS when I discovered ghosts when I was around seven years old I'd say.
My sister and I were looking up ghost pictures for fun. But then when I went back and looked at them my self I got terrifed.
It got to the point where I wouldn't leave my couch AT ALL. Because I thought they were going to get me.
To be honest, I'm still afraid of them today. I still watch my back when I go up the stairs after going to the bathroom.
I still can't look outside at night because I'm afraid I'll see one.
I have a legit phobia of the dark now because when I'm in the dark, I think ghost.
Thought, It's not nearly as bad when I first discovered them.
I still love horror movies.
I still love gohst stories.
Ghost Hunters is one of my favorite TV shows.
I guess I grew out of the terrified phaze and sttled into a phaze of paronoia.
I think it's the thought of what the media has portrayed ghosts as, that makes them scary.
Mostly as creepy demons with twisted faces bend on attacking you.
Or maybe it's the thought you'll see a face or person suddenly infront of you. (Which has happened to me before. I suddenly saw the face of a man pop up right before my eyes and I freaked.)
Or maybe it's the thought of them seeing or touching you. (One time in my kitchen I just numorus poked in my side suddenly. I was the only one downstairs, or so I thought.)
I veiw what I feel as paronioa, and I believe that's the same for you.
I know this will have problems for me in the future, maybe even you as well.
How will I, or you, live in a house all alone when we grow up without being scared constently?
I have noticed I only think about them now when I'm in the dark.
I've grown out of the completely terrifed phaze, and I think you will as well.
I don't know when, but I'm sure you will.

^Click. It may help you.
Also note, it's not a proven fact ghosts actually EXSIST.
Yes, I myself, and many others believe. But some don't. It's not proven.
Think about that. Maybe you'r mind just likes playing mean tricks on you.
