Hello all myloters, Darkness has been associated with evil since the civilization began. People are afraid of darkness. The reason varies from people to people. Whenever I step in darkness, the first thing that creates fear in my mind is snake. May be this is there is my subconscious mind. But fortunately I have not yet encountered this beautiful creature face to face. Now I want to know what you are afraid of darkness? Is it snake or Devil or something else? Please share.

Hi, Even I feel uneasy when I am at too much height. Snake I am afraid when not seen, say in the dark but when it is visible there is no problem.

Hi KIKI, So snake is common and women are particularly scared or allergic to cockroaches I do not know. I am not. Darkness is the symbol of devil and evil so this is universal. Thanks for the response.

I don't believe in any entity called a devil, or Satan, but I do believe in a few other dark things. I'm a little afraid of them but I know how to deal with them through my beliefs. I know I have the power to defeat them. We don't have really dangerous snakes in my country, apart from the Viper/Adder being poisonous, and I AM afraid of them, especially when walking through bracken or heather. I think we all have fear of certain things instilled within us, but they're not something you think about all the time, so in that vein, I would say that there isn't much I'm actually afraid of. Brightest Blessings, my friend.

Whatever is in the darkest night can be defeated by the light, my friend. The moon coming out from behind the clouds, a candle flame, a lantern, will all light your way, so there's no reason to be afraid of the dark. I think some things are instilled within us at a young age because our parents show fear of them. I guess this can be overcome at a later age with a little bit of effort.

Hi, I agree to your points. Even I do not think that darkness brings devil or evil. Fear of certain things are embedded right in our childhood and some are acquired. Thanks for the response.

I don't find fear to be very useful and I don't believe in speaking "power" into fears and increasing the likelihood of them becoming a reality.

Hi Canellita, I just failed to get your comment. This is a commonplace question indeed to ask you what you are particularly afraid of. Are not you afraid of certain thing?

Hi sis, You are a bit hydrophobic. See these are not good signs at all. You better consult a psychiatrist and fix your problem,

I am afraid of offending God, but that is a fear that we all should have. Now in this life, I am afraid of people, not all people, but some people. When I was a telemarketer, and someone was nasty to me, I was afraid, since the company I worked for, dealt with people in the city, I might meet someone who was nasty at the supermarket and they would come after me. And I am still a bit wary of people because of that.

Mine is very odd because what im afraid of is when bubbles are coming in my eyes whenever i take a bath of even washing my face. and another thing is when i hear the rain drops dripping from the roof.. the sound of it makes me panicked so much that i wanted to go out of the bathroom right away. Hmmm its very weird but true. :-)

I'm afraid of aliens. Afraid that they are just looming in the dark ready to abduct me and bring me to their planet for experiments. Looks like a scene in a movie,right? But honestly Aliens are some of my dreaded creature. This perhaps resulted for watching lot's of alien movies.

Hi reckon, Fear of aliens is very few or can be said rare specially in an individual. Do not worry my friend you would not be decamped for experiment.

I am not too bad these days but as a kid I used to be quite afraid of the dark and I can see my seven year old has the same fear. I am afraid of unfriendly barking dogs; I am quite scared of them and usually stay away from them if I can help it.

Know what Dogs are my best friends. Few Dogs would be there who would not be befriending me. Your case, I mean most women I have seen are not so friendly with these creatures.

I'm afraid of heights. Whenever I am on high places like buildings, bridges, fly-overs, etc. I feel cold, weak and dizzy. On the road when I'm driving I try to avoid going through bridges and fly-overs because I'm afraid I'll faint. I'm also scared of snakes, particularly big snakes. Even when in the zoo where these creatures are caged, I can't bring myself to look at them because they look really dangerous.

Hi, This is not abnormal that many people are afraid of height. To some extent it is ok but it it goes beyond the measure you need to take extra care. You are supposed have been suffering from Acrophobia

There is no doubt that you are in a phobia called Acrophobia. Do not worry it would fade away with little efforts.
