I leap into bed for the same reason. I try to leap from as far away as I can so that they can't reach my feet. Yet, when I sleep, I sleep best only if my feet are dangling off of the bed. Go figure! I'm 27. This is only when I sleep alone.

This could be a very real feeling. Something lots of people suffer from. Are you sure you dont have ghosts? Maybe you're really sensitive to them sand can sense when they're around easier than others.

That is so sad and sweet- keep your irrational fear, cause the real ones in the world are not going anywhere

You're not alone in this belief. I personally know 35 women in the metro DC area with this phobia and their ages are from 38 to 54.

I can't sleep with my arms or legs dangling because my kitty will attack with her sharp claws, I fear my own kitty.:)

lol. I was afraid of the dark too until I was homeless and had to sleep outside in it. Now it's more comforting than scary.
