Laura / Nineteen / South Carolina

I’m claustrophobic (only when it comes to having something on top of me). 

I have these horrible dreams, have been for years now, that I get myself into situations where I’m trapped under stuff and I actually stop breathing in person and have a panic attack, that’s how I get woken up from these dreams.

One time I was dreaming that I was at my neighbor’s house down the street, I was knocking on the door and these two mean guys answered and started to run after me so I ran back up towards my house. I ran behind my neighbor’s house and squeezed my way under the deck, with every breath I took it felt like the deck was getting closer and closer down to me and I couldn’t crawl out from under it because of how tight of a squeeze it became. 

Another time I had a dream that I was running from the principle with Vanessa (we were smoking weed in the school with a group of people) and I we went down the hallway that she had a class on, the further down the hallway I went the closer together it got in all directions until I started to crawl, then get down to an army call.

They’re the worst things ever. I have them so often, too often.

(Things I’m scared of relatedbeing under a bed, having to go under a car, having someone on top of me {including sitting on me}, having covers over my head, etc.. you get the point)
