If my mom was in the room, he'd be...

normal but like a mean but still normal you know like his as normal as possible but like my my mom would leave the room and then all of a sudden his face would like drop and his eyes would go dead and he would he would look straight at me and like get up in my face and be like just just remember I'm always watching you even if you think I'm not I'm always watching you I know everything that you're doing and and stuff like that like and it was just always so scary and then and then my mom would come back in the room and he'd go back to normal and it was just like

I couldn't understand it as a child.

Like it was just really weird.

And just for him to be like, I'm always watching you.

I'm always watching you.

Even when you're sleeping, even when you think I'm not watching you, I am and stuff like that.

And it was just scary.

So I started really struggling to fall asleep at night, obviously.

Like I'm fucking scared.

You're scaring me and you're being loud, keeping me up.

I can't sleep.

So yeah, the fact that I had a fear of bedtime, like because he would watch me, like when he came up to check on me,

And he would, like, peek through the crack of the door.

And I feel like normally parents just do, like, a quick look, but he would stand there and just stare.

And it was really scary as a child.

Like, that's horror movie level scary as a child.

Like, just this man just standing there and just staring.

All I can see is his eye on the crack of the door.

Like, I'm scared.
