: I have this irrational fear of storms. My wife
: ridicules me about it, which only makes it
: worse. Our home has been flooded, has had
: numerous power outages and once the tree in
: our backyard was hit by lightning. I have
: trouble sleeping when the weather calls for
: thunderstorms or worse. I don't know how to
: get over this. I'm the only I know with this
: problem. I just watched the local weather
: forecast and they're calling for the threat
: of severe weather every day for the next
: whole week. It seems like it never ends.
: Where is help?

:I know exactly how you feel. I have a fear of flooding too. My basement flooded 2 years ago while my entire family was camping for the weekend, and I haven't been able to get over it yet. I get so nervous everytime it rains heavy, which seem to be alot. My heart starts racing and I'm a nervous wreck. My husband has made such changes to ease my anxiety, such as putting in glass block windows, battery pumps, etc., but I am literally panic stricken every time it rains hard. Have you ever tried to get help for this?? I want to, but have no idea where to go. Any advice would help. Thanks.
