I am afraid of ...

I am afraid of darkness, I think this come since I have five years old, one day I slept in the afternoon. I was in my home with my mom, when suddenly there was a blackout, And my mom went to the third floor to find a flashlight. Then in few minutes I woke up, I couldn't see very well, then I turn on the light, but it didn't turn on. At that time, I thought I wasn't in my home, I imagined strange things, and I was scared, I didn't know what to do. When I cried, my mom heard me, and told me to be quite. And there was only a blackout. Since this experience, I am afraid of darkness, I couldn't sleep without the light or lamp on, because I start thinking in monsters and strange things. And I couldn't camping in the night. But I trying to overcome my fear, I know that all is in my mind.
