A childhood belief about fear of

I was pretty freaked out by the whole bathroom in general when I was little. I could never go to the bathroom without the shower curtain completely open. The linen closet door had to be completely closed. The weirdest thing I would do was cover the hole/drain in toilet bowl with toilet paper before I would sit down to go. So there were little squares of toilet paper floating neatly in the middle of the toilet water. I guess I was convinced that something could come up and get me and (of course!) the toilet paper could keep that from happening. Obviously my theory was "if I can't see it, it isn't there". What an idiot!
