I STILL can't sleep if the wardrobe doors are open - can you?

[morningpaper]

DH thinks I am bonkers but all wardrobe doors much be shut

Why? he says

Monsters! I say

Not sure really, but I can't BEAR wardrobe doors being open.

Am I mad?

Perhaps a little deranged...

oh DEAR I thought I was NORMAL

MP I have this affliction also

But then I am utterly phobic about heights and bridges.

well that's fair enough MI

those are things you might fall off ...

oh GOOD pink pussy cat

Oh I thought it was just me!!

I can't sleep with mirrors looking at me either though

Probably not London or Farringdon Bridges. They are quite stable. I cannot walk over them. Literally.

No I can't sleep with the wardrobe doors open.

I didn't actually realise it until I read the thread title, but I do always close them before I go to bed.

And ensure that the curtains are completely closed so nothing can peep in at me whilst I slumber.

Dh has to have the ensuite door shut before getting into bed... so between us there is much shutting of doors taking place before anything else gets done in our bedroom.

lol pinkpussycat

MI you ARE mad

Monsters in wardrobe perfectly reasonable

Hey I'm the same. All cupboard doors, walk in wardrobe and ensuite doors must be shut.

Not gaps in the curtains for monsters to look in and I must be totally covered in bed apart from my head also to prevent monster attacks....

You can never be too sure....

Agree superloopy!

lol

I'm glad it's not just ME

LOL
I still close the wardrobe doors every night and the kids too
Same with the curtains and now got use to sleeping with the landing light on cos of dc.
Can`t sleep without a light at night if we are away without dcs .

I make sure the baby-gate is locked at the top of stairs

Even if the children aren't sleeping in the house

This is like monsters-inc

Oh no!

Jules i didn't know about the drawer-monsters

I'm the same - en-suite doors in hotels have to be shut, as do wardrobe doors.

Some deeply ingrained fear of monsters / the dark / the unknown I think.

Glad I'm not mad

All of the above and a quick look under the bed for good measure, while pretending to look for an odd sock or something!

Same here. And I always pull the covers right up over my head (much to DH's annoyance) in case anything ruffles my hair - which DID happen once, I swear!

OMG I thought it was just me!!!

I can't cope if they are open and yet can't cope if the door to the landing is closed.

oh yes another one here everything shut and curtains closed properly

cannot sleep if theres a ticking clock nearby either drives me loopy
