D is for darkness, for some the monster in the dark, or the darkness that shelters.

I find I'm not often scared of the dark of the streets at night, a sort of open dark. But sometimes when I'm stressed and anxious about other things, the enclosed dark of my house can really give me the heebie-jeebies!

I think maybe I had a fear of the dark when I was little, it may have been more of a fear of what could be in the darkness kind of thing than of darkness itself. No fear of the dark now, perfectly content in it ^-^

D is for Darkness
I'm not scared of the dark, but I'm scared of what I can't see in the dark. It's an odd fear to explain. I also have to sleep with a night light on

D is for Darkness

When I was a kid, I was terrified of the dark until one night when I was about 6, when I lay there looking at the ceiling and decided to turn off the light - there was something both scary and liberating about laying there looking into the complete blackness, and it intrigued me because my mind immediately tried to fill in the blank space by conjuring flickers of colored lights until my eyes adjusted
In a roundabout way, I suppose I'm still scared of the dark for a moment when the lights go out, but once I take a breath and let my eyes adjust, it feels almost cozy

D is for Darkness

I'm not afraid of the dark; I generally don't like it, because navigation and trying to accomplish tasks gets difficult, but if I'm not trying to move around or do something the dark feels rather comforting.

I am a little afraid of the dark. The paranormal and horror genre has always scared me, and it bleeds into everyday life when navigating a house or a room with little/no lighting. I now have a few nightlights in the hallways and rooms of my apartment to help make it seem a little more familiar and comforting than without them. Strangely enough, I only have this fear when inside a building, I am perfectly fine with walking around outside and navigating only with the light from the moon or streetlamps.

D is for Darkness

i don't fear the dark really. more so i fear what could be in the dark depending on where i am. like if i'm outside in the dark without anyone else i may be a little scared. if i'm in my bedroom i'm not really since i feel safe in the darkness there.
