How Do You Stop Being Scared After Watching Scary Movies?
I would recommend that after you watch a scary movie, think of how afraid you are, on a scale from one to ten. then, watch a comedy or something that you enjoy. after one movie, if you still have the amount of fear that you had before, watch a disney movie. I am sorry, it may be embarrassing, but it is one sure way to calm you down. If you can still not calm down, then I do not know what you watched, but wow.
• Remember that it’s not real. It’s supposed to scare you, and remember that it’s just a trick; it’s not real! You’re no less safe than you were before. • Watch something peaceful, funny, or nice afterward. Like 50 First Dates, or The Wedding Planner, or some chic-flick! • Remember, the movie industry invested a lot of effort into making their movies believable. Just keep remembering those are actors and actresses, and nothing horrid can or did really happen, try to imagine the director suddenly yelling cut! Then then actor/actress taking off their mask and saying “WTF What now?” It helps you to realize that it is all just made up. • After the movie think of all the fake and non scary things of the movie. • Think of something positive or something you are doing the next day. • Do an activity to get your mind off of it. • Talk about the movie, as it really does help. Try to point out how it is impossible, and if the scary things did exist, why would they target you in particular? • Imag
