Okay, so at random intervals, maybe after I see something mildly creepy, I get extremely paranoid. By mildly, I mean a picture of a teddy bear with teeth, or one of those ‘scary’ things. But usually I’m not affected, it’s random when it happens. Typically I love scary stuff, but sometimes, it just gets bad. When that happens and my paranoia hits, I have to peek out of e shower curtain every five minutes, stare at the door while doing daily tasks, turn on every light in the house just to be safe, hide under my blanket at night with my hands over my ears, etc. That lasts about a week or two, and then everything is normal again, but I’m still the same to a lesser extent. If I walk by the stairs and think I see a figure at the bottom of the steps, I rush into the next room. It happens more and more frequently, and it’s quite annoying. Should I just stay away from the creepy stuff, or is this something everyone does but is too embarrassed to tell?
