why are you afraid

In real life, I am indeed a bold person. I can almost always do what I want without being intimidated. But, I have never watched a horror movie alone. I have only watched a complete horror movie in my life, half of it screaming and running away and this pseudo-horror movie of the fourth kind of contact. The full horror movie was watched with a group of people, and I held on to the guy next to me and then went to bed every day for the next month with the worst scene. That half was also watched with a group of people. I grabbed the girl next to me tightly and ran away screaming. It took me a long time to calm down and return to normal. This "Encounter of the Fourth Kind" was watched with a girl and I hugged my doll tightly and she hugged me (not because she was scared). Halfway through, I screamed again in a segment where the victim was screaming, and this time I was scared to tears.
I can't imagine having a bunch of cameras around me hilariously filming and telling myself it's not going to hurt me. I was immersed in the feeling of being hurt, of an unknown and irresistible force wrapping me around me, of death and great pain twisting my life.
Can anyone tell me what is the reason for this? I'm actually terrified of any scenes of bloody violence, anything that can make me feel physically hurt, throws me into horrific imaginations. I think it might be because of something I went through as a kid, but how can I get rid of it? Should I go into hypnosis? It has been more than ten years, can time change all this?
I can't always remember other people's faces, hairstyles, figures, clothes, names; my sense of direction is worse than the average girl. I think the deficiencies in some areas must be filled by other things. I am more sensitive to the scenery and plants in nature than others. I am especially sensitive to the beautiful things depicted in poetry. I think this is one of the reasons why I am sensitive to horror movies?

  • Sheriff August: Difficult to go back.

    Abbey Tyler: To go back?

    Sheriff August: Back over the line from fiction to reality. You can't just stop being insane whenever you want to. It's the the kind of thing that stays with you - forever.
