Does Anyone Have A Fear Of ??

I'm praying for us all to get through this season without any damage to ourselves, loved ones or homes.

I went looking today specifically for a thread on "fear of thunderstorms." There was a strong rain storm last night here in my area. No thunder or lighting, just heavy rain and wind. I used to love thunderstorms. Last night it kept me up all night.

Last night, all I could associate with the noise of the rain, on the windows, was the summer storm that happened "that night'. I remember looking out the window as he backed me into the room laughing and closing the door behind him. When he saw me looking out the windows, he laughed and told me that there was "no escape up there". (the windows were very high up and did not open at all). I can remember the darkness that I saw outside and the noise of the rain on the windows....

Then after, I remember the darkness and the wet smells and noises as I hid in the woods, while "they" looked for me. I remember running in the wet weeds, and then managed to escape and run home. All the way home I kept looking over my shoulder, thru the fog, to see if they were following me. Even now, the smells and even the mud, after rain, make me nervous. I even try to avoid walking barefoot on wet cement.

There is usually no where to run and hide when a storm is all around me...

I hate thunderstorms still. I remember being left at night in the mount of a barn naked. I was about 9 or 10. And the thunderstorm was awful.

I agree with above. It could just be the loud noises. My trauma has nothing to do with thunder sounds but too much sensory input of any kind can be a trigger. Totally understandable
