what/ im home alone, and im freaking scared as hell!?

yeah so im seventeen.. pretty pathetic that im scared huh? well its 9 oclock over here, and my dad is out.. im home alone.. and, I get scared easier than ANYBODY! if I hear a weird nose, I freak out and think its a ghost or someones watching me.. I have to turn on all the lights.. and I dont like turning all the lights on bc I cant see outside, but if someone was outside, they could see me.. I feel like im being watched..

its really creepy and I hate that im so scared about it.. its probably nothing. but, im creeped out, and I don’t know what to do..

any advice? thanks!

Answer #1

Sounds like you have autophobia, fear of being alone or left alone. Maybe you want to talk to your psychiatrist about it to be on the safe side about it :)

Answer #2

and, well im going to try and talk my dad into letting me get a dog.. he knows I get scared easy.. and maybe he’ll understand what im going through, and let me get a dog.. I just hate feeling like this.. I may need to go to therapy.. lol. I feel like im going crazy..

Answer #3

to hysterical: your totally right, I looked that up.. and im pretty sure I have autophobia. I’ve been like this ever since my mom and stepdad split up and me and my mom moved in with her sister.. I started getting scared easy.. its not that I feel unloved or anything. im just terribly scared a lot.. if it was daytime, I would totally be fine right now.. im just paranoid.. but thanks for the advice guys!
