If somone is scared of the dark, how do they get to sleep?
Answers:
By coming over and doing me.
With a night light.
People can sleep when it's not dark, or not fully dark, you know. It's not all that difficult.
Leave the light on. My step son sleeps with his eyes half open. Eerie but true.
Nightlights are good, so is leaving a hall light or a closet light on.
They even have stuffed animals that have night lights inside of them now! It is called a "Glow Worm" and it is adorable.
I used to be scared of the dark. I used to go to sleep with the radio on quiet, and the lights form the stereo lit up the room.
scared
Night light or keep a hall light on with the door cracked or they just keep their bedroom light on all the time.
If you are really scared of the dark maybe go get some psych help so that they can desesatize your fears. If night lights don't work maybe you can sleep with your mommy or daddy.

Hawks,
If this is you and you're an adult, then i think you have to face your fear and look at the reality of the situation and show your self that the room is the same in darkness or in the light. However if its a small child i recommend use of touch lights that you can press in the middle and they light the room up, so the child can see that strange shapes in the dark are just things in the room that have no threat to them.
I am afraid of the dark. What I do before I get ready to go to bed is check every dark area in my room because I am afraid that there is someone there waiting to harm me(irrational fear). Then when I realize no one is there then I go to bed and instead of trying to go to sleep which is impossible when you try to make your self sleep, I just lay there and relax and eventually sleep comes because the body needs to rest.
I have come to the conclusion that instead of fighting trying to make myself sleep, I just go to bed at the same time each night to train my body that it is time to go to bed and relax and rest. Then after awhile sleep does come because I dream and sometimes I remember that I dreamt so I know that I did go to sleep.
be lighted room- a dim light---then lay down and make a imagination of yur good past moment yu will sleep very soon
stop being scared of dark. and that can be done spending whole day in the dark.
Get someone to accompany you.
Hm, maybe if he/she uses a stroboscope - so that every time it gets dark and the person gets scared, it gets light again. Yet just when he/she feels reassured though, it gets dark again. And having said that, if monsters come to you in the dark it's scary, if they come to you under a stroboscopic effect it's terror could be infinitely worse.
Maybe it'd be a better idea for him/her to stay awake all the time. When sleep finally wins, the subject will be too knackered to be scared.
As a third alternative, he or she could find a job to do at night - such as a nightwatch in a morgue. Don't know if that's helpful either though.
sleep with the tv or lamp
Think about this: The dark is no different from the light, but the lighting is different. No material objects change. It's only different light.
I don't like the dark, but it's different when your eyes are closed. It's not true darkness, and you know it's because your eyes are closed, and that it's just your eyelids behind it, whereas in true darkness something could be lurking. I deal with my fear by turning off my main light, and using the light from my television to get me into bed. I then turn off the television and lie back fast in my bed, and pull my covers over my head. I don't open my eyes again through fear. I guess the think is that you convince yourself it's only dark because your eyes are closed, and this is optional, whereas the darkness because it is night is not so optional.
Alternatively, you could always move to Iceland during the 24hr light season, and find somewhere else for the dark season.
