get over my phobias

my fear of the darkness has been subdued a lot. i’ve been learning to drive to get over the accident, and some of my lessons have been at night time. it’s been really scary but also really empowering! and i can sleep without a light on sometimes too now :)

I sat on Brighton beach last weekend with about 7 seagulls less than a metre away from me. AAARRGGGHHH! But I survived. So it’s all good :)

clowns – due to watching ‘it’ when very young… and because they’re creepy
crows/rooks/ravens – due to watching ‘the birds’ when very young & my cat bringing in live birds when i was a kid
custard – i have no idea!
darkness – due to a car accident late at night

i hate being scared of all of these things, but particularly custard as it makes no sense whatsoever, and darkness as i can’t afford the electricity bills!
