Any night hikers here? How do you handle the fear of the dark? I'm extra curious with those who have ADHD.

While I enjoy being outside in the woods alone when it's dark, it's also equally scary as enjoyable.

I know I have nothing to fear, yet my brain doesn't seem to understand that. And it doesn't seem to get better with age either.

@hund embrace the darkness!

I think it's nice to stay still in the dark, turn off all your flashlights or whetever you have and just let it be dark, then stand there for a while and observe your surroundings. Just be in it.

@eliasr That could be something. I'll try it next time! :)
