It can be anything from near-death experiences to scary movies or something jumping out at you!

My dog had cancer and we had to cut off his leg. He didn't live long after that even, and I had to watch him die. :(

I was dragged out to sea when I was body boarding once. I almost drowned and none of the surfers were willing to help me. I didn't go in the water again for the rest of the year. I had nightmares. I've almost drowned before (my brother is not a fun person live with), but that was the worst.

I was an excellent swimmer, but the waves were 9ft and I was wearing water boots (it was cold).

I had a dream where I was the bad guy, and I hurt everyone close to me. My parents, siblings, and my friends. The looks of pure fear on their faces were terrible. They were horrified. And then I realized...It wasn’t a dream.

Oh no... I am so sorry. As a fellow dog owner I know how scary something like that can be. My dog once ate a whole Heath bar. Wrapper and all. She’s ok, but i never left her side the whole day to make sure she was ok. So freaky, man 😭

I was in the bathroom once and I slipped. I crashed on the floor and couldn't breathe. I was panicking, but after about 30 seconds, I could breathe again. I was 7.
