Today, I had to tell my doctor the real reason why I can't sleep at night for him to prescribe me anymore Ambien: I still have the irrational fear that there are monsters in the closet. I'm 22. FML

Its probably just R kelly . He has been trapped in that closet for a while.

this is a definite FYL, you can't choose what you're scared of, even if it's not real. hence why it's called an "irrational" fear.

I was afraid to look at the mirror for the longest time and still sometime but that's because on the back of our mind we are all scared to run into a ghost. Now having said that, a monster..... in your closet....

I'm 21 and I'm afraid at night, too-- not really about monsters, though. More like serial killers, rapists, etc. I feel a little silly.

Mine has always been kidnappers. :o I had recurring nightmares about being kidnapped for years. At the height of it, I had to buy a new car, so I got a truck. No backseat. I figured out the root of it, though, and then they stopped. It still lingers sometimes, but like you, I know it's silly now.

I hope you don't watch the show Criminal Minds, then, nerds. That would make it so much worse.

Oh man, Jane, recurring nightmares like that are so awful! It's good that you were eventually able to stop them, though! Luckily I don't really have nightmares anymore either, but sometimes I admittedly stay awake longer than I'd like-- just listening to every creak the house makes and being irrationally scared. :P #95 Haha! I avoid shows like that for that reason...

Spas, I couldn't watch shows like CM and SVU for a long time for that reason. But my love of a good mystery eventually overcame my distubance. I used to watch CourtTV constantly, but I've seen 'em all now. I think I might make a decent investigator, if I wasn't so soft-hearted. Maybe writing mysteries would be a better occupation for me. :) nerds, I live in an old house converted into apartments, and my downstairs neighbor is, er, rather large. She keeps weird hours, too. I can't let the creaks get to me or I'd never sleep!

You are probably dependent on them. Slow Down.

Tell him you have an Anxiety Closet with a purple snorklewacker in it.

i agree with 14. monsters aren't all that bad once you watch monsters inc. [;
