I'm afraid of being alone in the dark :(

My boyfriend works late, if I'm alone by myself and the power goes out because of a lightning storm or something I can't stay in the house. I try my best to calm myself down, I'll call friends or something. I usually end up running outside with my shoes barely on, and waiting outside in the rain until my boyfriend comes home from work.

Don't worry, I've had it explained to me: I'm leaving my house where I am alone and safe, to go outside in the rain where there could possibly be something dangerous lurking. I really wish there was some magic pill I could take because I know how ridiculous this fear is and I am so embarrassed by it. I'm not a little girl anymore... I feel so stupid after, but my imagination just goes wild.
