How do you not be afraid of the dark?

Answer 1

We are all afraid of the irrational, the unknown. It is completely understandable that you might be afraid of the dark.

Some things you can do to prevent being afraid of the dark are:

1. Take a good look around before the lights are of then, once the lights are of, close your eyes and imagine that the lights are still on.

2. Sing a familiar and happy song quietly or in your head.

3. Sleep in the same room with someone who is not afraid of the dark.

4. I-personally-find comfort in God. Though many people shun the idea that God is present and active, at the very least I find comfort in knowing that their is an almighty God who is looking out for me and orchestrating every aspect of my life for my benefit. (Note: I am not trying to begin a religious debate, simply to share how I find comfort when the darkness seems to close in around me.)

Hope this helps!
