Interestingly enough, I had a big fear of dogs. I don’t really know why because I’ve never had a traumatic experience with them (thank God I never got bitten).
I also feared being alone, darkness (but not much) and heights. Woah, I was a fearful kid.
Today, well, I only fear those big, aggressive dogs like kangals and rottweilers. As for darkness and loneliness, nah.
Please tell us more about the event! This is the internet, should be mostly anonymous…
When I was less than five years old, my dad would direct my attention to the outlines of the trees in the dark night sky to scare me into putting the covers over my head, so I’d fall asleep.
