you don’t swim alone
I can’t swim in my pool alone. I’m always afraid a shark will appear and eat me. Or the ghost of a former resident of my house. Or an alien.

you have your OWN pool and you can’t swim alone? you have your OWN POOL??
If you put your head under water while alone then the *whatever* will show up and kill you. The thing I fear is that plastic will magically appear just at the top of the water, and when I try to bring my head up for air I will not be able to.
It is an irrational fear. I realize that. I am sure the OP realizes that as well. It is still a fear, and it affects the way we act. I will not swim in any pool alone, never mind if it is mine or not.
this is by far one of the most interesting irrational fears i’ve ever heard of. any ideas, both of you, how this started? a scary movie seen as a child? mean siblings scaring you in the pool? one of the best weird pool scenes was a twilight zone where a little bro & sis swim to the bottom of the pool to escape their bickering parents and go to this beautiful place with a nice auntie. isn’t that better than a shark?
Oh my god!!! I thought I was the only one.. I am 25 years old and still to this day cannot swim by myself. I always think something will come and kill me (whether its a shark, monster, etc). I am also terrified of deep water, even if I am swimming with other people.
Me too!! I always think it will be a shark, and it’ll come out of one of the vents, even when i’m not alone. Maybe its because i’m scared of the sea
I think scary movies and scary stories definitely have something to do with it. I have issues with the vents, stories about kids getting their hands stuck int hem stand out, but I also fear something will come up through it. Think IT just instead of the shower its the pool.
There are also various scenes in my mind from horror films, the plastic appearing over the top of the water was one…the Jason movies are chock full of water and monster scariness. There are lots of them.
I know they are irrational. I still can’t help it. I feel deep and controlling fear whenever I am in a pool and find myself alone. I also have issues with all night swimming. Lights or no lights, I can not place my body in or near a body of water while it is dark out. Of course, I also won’t step out of bed without *some* light on, but that is a whole ‘nother neurosis entirely.
don’t you know that if you stay standing on the black line in the pool nothing (sharks, seamonsters et al) can get you! everybody knows that.
I have the same fear, but instead of a shark it is a snake or dangerous or reptilian creature hiding in the deep end of the pool. Highly Plausible.
I almost drowned as a small child and it spawned all kinds of water-related fears so I TOTALLY get it.
I’m most afraid of a zombie. I have to put my head under water a lot to make sure no zombies snuck in the pool.
haha me too or a dead body will float up and grab me
We had an aboveground pool, and the whole time we were growing up, my brothers used to wait till I was on the side with no ladder then jump out and scream “JAWS!” to watch me swim like a maniac to the ladder. It’s not an irrational fear – it could happen. I also have trouble taking a bath when no one else is home, just in case.
I can`t swim in a pool alone too! I am afraid that a weird genius professor has genetically manipulated sharks in a tank among the swimming pool and when I am in the pool they will come out and eat me alive…so I guess I get that from my older sister. she told me as I were younger that “IT” is living among the swimming pool.

Hello,I love reading through your blog, I wanted to leave a little comment to support you and wish you a great continuation. Wishing you the best of luck for all your blogging efforts. Thank you
How much could you make with this blog if you had thousands of product seeking visitors coming to it every day? What if you could do this without using search engine marketing, adwords, socials, article marketing or YouTube? I can gain thousands of buyers to my sites every day, not worrying about the Big G at all. I use this cheap, targetted traffic to gain at least $300 every day. If you are sick of spending a ton on ppc, seo bs, or other worthless ideas, you need to learn how to really make money —> HERE.

Hey – great blog, just looking around some blogs, seems a really nice platform you are using. I’m currently using Wordpress for a few of my blogs but looking to change one of them over to a platform similar to yours as a trial run. Anything in particular you would recommend about it?
Super site, and nice text.

Aw, it was such a good post. In fact I would like to write this way as well – taking actual effort to create a great article… but what can I say… I procrastinate a great deal and by no means seem to get something carried out…
Generally I do not post on blogs, but I would like to say that this post really forced me to do so. Really nice post!

Some time before, I needed to buy a car for my corporation but I did not earn enough cash and could not order something. Thank heaven my dude suggested to get the personal loans at trustworthy creditors. Thence, I did that and used to be happy with my commercial loan.
