Even if the person is don't have relation in me, I am not afraid to look at dead body in coffin. When I was a child, I was so scared and hardly look at the dead body lying there, I remember of my 6th grade, I look at my classmate brother's dead body, who died at car accident and I saw his face lots of stitches. I am so scared that I had high fever that night, the next body I viewed was when I was in second year when my female classmate died. Since then, I tried looking at dead body to conquer my fear.
Recently, my bf and I visit my friend's father in law's wake. My bf again did not even glance at the dead. He said he don't look at dead body anymore except he's relative, he's phobia began when he viewed a dead in the coffin and suddenly the dead open he's eyes. I said I don't believe it and maybe he's just sleepy or exhausted that time. To be able to overcome your fear you have to face it, and looking at dead body at wake is the one of my many fear that I've overcome.

I don't have goose bumps anymore, but I don't wanna be alone with the coffin on my front. But as long as the body is normal I can look at it.
