I remember being terrified of the dark as a child, convinced that there were monsters lurking in the shadows. No matter how often my parents reassured me that there was nothing there, I would still imagine all sorts of creatures ready to jump out at me. I used to keep a nightlight on and even create elaborate “protection” rituals before going to bed, like checking under the bed and in the closet. Looking back, it seems so silly, but at the time, those fears felt so real! What about you?
