I used to have nightmares about seeing my brother fall off the st Charles bridge and I was too far away to help him. I also had dreams that a huge monster was chasing my family on the beach and it always chased and got to aunt patti first, sometimes others, but i felt the same gut wrenching, helpless feeling. I was always scared to lose the people that i loved. I'm sure that's why I act crazy and try to prevent it at all costs when I think you're going to leave me and the kids.
An African war mask, death, breathing, my parents arguing, lots of things.
Spiders and when my parents fought
Are used to think that the devil was under my bed. There were times when it kept me awake all night long.
Thunderstorms scare me to no end. Why I don't fully understand
Fire. A candle was small enough to be tolerable, but anything larger scared me out of my wits, and was a fairly frequent ingredient in nightmares.
Wow, I'd almost completely forgotten about it, but that was one of the things that scared me, too. Bad dreams, the whole bit.
