Hi all

I thought I would reply to this post after much inner deliberation.........

When I was a small child I was terrified of being alone!

My MOM says that it started the very day that we moved into our new house...I

was 2 years old!

My parents had decorated my room before we moved in to make me comfortable

within the new space......My first night there my parents had already been

there for about 3 days.....They put me to bed and later went to bed

themselves.....

At about 2:30-3:00 AM They were woken up by my screams....they came running

in as this was definately not *typical* behaviour for me.....ALL OF THE

POSTERS IN MY ROOM HAD BEEN RIPPED OFF OF THE WALLS. I was in a crib still

and no windows were open...it was a typical Canadian winter!

Many incidents later...it came to a point that my parents could no longer

deal with my terror; my MOM took me to see a HOMEPATHIC doctor....he saisd I

was suffering from night terrors and that I was definatley seeing

something!!!

As I grew older I saw many strange things in that house......a woman dressed

in a red dress with long dark hair.....a man in an old fashioned

suit...complete with pocket watch.....scarey things to me........I heard

voices in my room.......that sounded like they were all trying to talk at

once etc. Sounds crazy, huh??? But it happened! Once I hit puberty it

stopped.....completely stopped...and I haven't had a problem since....but I

can remember it very well......

If your children are not frightened....don't worry.

It sounds like you are doing all of the right things by asking questions and

not getting upset....

I am a definate believer in what happened to me as a child......I don't know

why it happened...or really what I would call it.....but I know I was always

afraid to be alone......and I know it caused chaos in my home! I think

children definately have the power to see and hear things that we later

lose......some people being naturally more open to it than others......

I hope I have not freaked anyone out with this. It was not my intention to do

so........just thought I would add the two cents of the childs point of

view...( a former child).....

Love and Hugs,

..
