afraid to be alone phobia

I'm afraid of the dark, I have to overcome this phobia soon, it's driving me crazy … Suggestions?

I was afraid of the dark for years, I live alone and their worst, what can I do? please respond only if you are helpful … not really looking for someone to tell me you're afraid of the dark also … Now, if you were once afraid of the dark and are no more, your suggestions are welcome, or if you are a doctor, any helpful suggestions are welcome as well that … thanks!

The best people to overcome fears as they approach their fears. So you have to go in the dark. When you do, you will notice that nothing bad happens. I suggest you start in a place that you know is safe and introduce yourself to the darkness there. You may want to start with a friend with you this will not be in the dark, alone. Make it gradual. Start with a short period of time in darkness and then gradually increase the time. Take care, Lori
