Phobias you have gotten over/overcome

[Meson Bolt 2,648]

Thunderstorms. I used to be really afraid of them as a kid, but I'm not now. They're actually really peaceful to me.

Also needles. I used to be one of those kids who hated needles, but I never spoke out about it (just freaked out internally). But since my job requires me to maintain a lot of immunizations, I've kinda grown bored of them. x3

Darkness and being alone at night. When I was kid I was really afraid of both, once I even had something like sleeping paralysis. Because of my mom's job she was often working at night and I had to sleep alone, in the beginning I couldn't even sleep with lights turned off, but eventually I overcome these phobias. Now I'm feeling pretty ok being alone at night

"I was told, when I get older, all my fears would shrink, But now I'm insecure, an' I care what people think"

I realized that being scare of the dark then was nothing compare to my anxiety now.

I used to be scared as a kid that a robber would come into the house. That still sounds scary but as I’ve gotten older I’ve thought of ways I can flee or how I can at least get help if that were to ever happen.

Was afraid of the car wash (eventually just... realized it’s just a car wash  ). It was mostly the ones with the big brushes, but I felt the same about the touch less ones.

Also dogs. (Because of one embarrassing incident...). I remember overcoming it... there was a small, really elderly looking dog just... sleeping, laying down. I thought it was so harmless and vulnerable, I guess I realized they aren’t all out to get ya and often they’re also ... harmless. I was with it for the time I was at that house.

Thunderstorms. Those used to terrify me, but now they're more just unsettling. I'm always on edge when a thunderstorm rolls through.
