Yeah I hate that feeling when you wake up and feel watched. But we have to face our fears and over come them. A really good docu i watched last week might be of help to you. I will post bellow. If you only watch one thing this week make sure it's this!

It explains about why people fear the dark, solitude, spiders you name it. It's pretty far out stuff. Watch with an open mind my friend.
