ME AND MY FULLY DRAWN MOUTH ARE GLAD WE COULD HELP!

don't get me started on the drop tower rides 😭

When I was a child adults scared me. Now as an adult, adults and children scare me.

As a kid I was TERRIFIED of butterflies, and of course in second grade we had an entire half year long unit about butterflies where we raised them, learned about them, and also visited about 6 different botanical gardens with butterfly houses. I straight up refused to go in and they actually left me outside by myself for some reason. I was always grateful for the garden staff who reassured me that it was a common fear and showed me the flowers instead

I was scared by Jim Carrey’s grinch when I was younger, and now it’s one of my favorite Christmas movies.

I love how even though her characters don’t have any mouths, we still know and understood their emotions because of how expressive their body language is.

The loud noise and balloon thing is still me to this day

1:20 I love how fear is shaking very cool detail

"When we're kids, fear is a kid too" is a wonderful way of describing it.

[JAMIEvstheVOID]

Tower of Terror was a masterclass in making kids terrified. Gave me a lot of bragging rights as a seven yr old to have ‘survived’ it. :’)

[Haxellmon]

OMG IM RELATING TO EVERY SINGLE FEAR WAY TOO MUCH. I WAS TERRFIED OF LOUD NOISES, BALLOONS, THAT WEIRD AMUSEMENT PARK FEELING IN UR STOMACH, DROP TOWERS, ETC

[Lil_Charmander]

I HATE THE FEELING YOU ARE GOING TO FALL OUT OF YOUR SEAT! It’s terrifying but I like roller coasters and stuff like that.

[JellyJessYT]

Well Rebecca sure is right, I HATED horror movies as child and guess what happened. They are masterpieces *MWAH CHEFS KISS*

Something I want to address here: Beeing afraid of drop towers is NOT an irrational fear. If you're scared of heights or panicking because you're afraid that something might go wrong, it can not only make you more anxious or even sick to go on the ride.
Facing your fears is a good thing, but you shouldn't force yourself (or your kid for that matter) to overcome certain fears if you/they can't deal with it (yet) .

The thing is FNaF

I used to have nightmares and restless nights, along with severe paranoia of enter my own room

But several years later, I’ve watched the FNaF Movie as an avid fan, and thoroughly enjoy the franchise

[Uni-Pjo-Lover]

Something that scared me as a kid was the Disney movie Zombies. It was actually made for kids, but I didn’t know that, so it freaked me out. Once my parents actually made me sit through it, I loved the movie and I watched the sequels.

6:08 I STOPPED WATCHING OVER THE GARDEN WALL HALF WAY THROUGH WHEN I WAS LIKE 8-10 (I don't remember how old I was exactly.) AND NOW I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT

[HarmonyMoonbeam]

When I was younger, my first ever introduction to horror (and the sole thing that I think forever ruined my innocence and gave me problems) was Attack on Titan. I accidentally saw it once when I was 9 and was ABSOLUTELY scarred for life. But ever since then, I’ve had a bit of a fascination with horror, and now I love watching Phasmophobia live stream VODs and playing Backrooms games with my besties

Haven't seen any YouTuber talk about childhood fears/traumas in awhile, so this was definitely unexpected! Glad to see it tho!
