Today, it hit me that I'm incredibly pathetic, when at the age of 21, I tucked my stuffed animals into bed with me, facing in different directions so they could keep watch for monsters while I slept. FML

Pathetic? Hardly! Those monsters under the bed are only slightly scarier than the ones in the closet. It's a damned good thing you have such good protection.

Well if you haven't been attacked by monsters yet, then they're doing a good a job.

Although it sounds stupid, it's not pathetic to get in touch with your inner child sometimes. Don't beat yourself up about it too much :)

I was hoping OP was a guy for some odd reason.

Everyone has their own way of falling asleep. For example I myself play relaxing nature music. It's not the same as your stuffed animal barrier but each person has a different way to sleep that makes them feel safe and relaxed.

Keep up the rituals that comfort you. No shame. I'm 23 and I always have a plushie to snuggle. If I don't, I can't sleep.

That's so cute! I'm 39 and I still collect and sleep with stuffed animals, although I don't think they'll protect me from monsters, real or imagined. :)

I sleep with my fish light on because I can't sleep in the dark. We all have little quirks. Trust me, you're in the range of normal. :)

I still do this, even if my boyfriend is stay over. No meer man can defeat the bedtime mosters

It's ok OP, I'm 20, and I still sleep with one of my stuffed animals...
