I think I outgrew this fear a long time ago. Now I still feel the fear but not as strong as when I was small and young. I think fear will always be there but if you can control it it won't bother you at all. Fear is just a creation of your own mind and you can actually control it if you are determined to go away with it.

Pretty much I'm not afraid of dark. There's too many interesting things going on when it gets dark. It's cooler (in the Summer), when the moon is out it's so nice, seeing moonlight everywhere. I love the fireflies. The sound of crickets. The sound of owls. I guess the dark in the cities can be a little more threatening I suppose. It also depends on how many scary movies we watch. It's so peaceful at night, too, for the most part, the traffic slows down, and around 4 in the morning, even the nightowls go to sleep. ( I suppose that dosn't apply to New York City). If I get caught in the dark, I just try to focus on the good side of it being dark. Then it becomes not so scary after all.

I actually like the dark... That's one of my favorite time of the day, pitch black night with nothing but moon light... It's so quiet & peaceful... I get to hear everything going on around me because it's so quiet... Day time is good too, I just happened to like night better... They used to have this big open field around the corner from the house where I grew up... I used to go out there in the middle of the night & lay there for hours looking up at the sky... The field was partially wooded & I hear all the leaves on trees waving in the wind...

Hi, I found my self didn't affraid of the dark. I admit that when night come everything seems different, while of course all still the same as in daylight. What I'm affraid about walking at night is not dark but bad minded people (buglar, etc). Well I hope that answer: I didn't affraid of the dark I more concern of bad mind people when I have to walk in the middle of the night.
