Ever get a little
freaked-out after watching a scary movie? Did that horror flick leave
you feeling just a little jumpy? Did that scary monkey from Toy Story 3
make you jump? Don't worry - it's easy to curb your fright after
watching a scary movie. All you have to do is brace yourself and think
rationally.
Steps
-
1Remember 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. Keep in mind that all the scary things you just viewed were most likely computer effects or something similar. Remind yourself that it is not real.
-
2Watch something peaceful, funny, or nice afterward. Like 50 First Dates, or The Wedding Planner, or some chick-flick! Try comedies as well- they will make you laugh and lift your mood.
-
3Remember, the movie industry invested tons of effort in making their movies "real". Just keep remembering those are live 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 "What the heck. What now?" It helps you to realize that it is all just made up.
-
4After the movie think of all the fake and non scary things of the movie.
-
5Think of something positive or something you are doing the next day.
-
6Do an activity to get your mind off of it. Hang out with a friend, or be around family.
-
7Talk 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?
-
8Imagine the scary scene over and over in your mind. Each time, make the scene less scary. For example, maybe the killer just jumped out of nowhere and killed someone. Think of when the killer stabbed the person. Next time, make them be poking them with a stick, next time they can be cat fighting etc. Each time just make it funnier. Pretty soon it will be hilarious! You won't be scared at all. Do this with each scary scene that has left you scared. Next time you watch the movie, you may be laughing your head off while everyone else is shaking in fear!
-
9If the movie is on DVD, try watching the behind-the-scenes special features. You will find that seeing how the movie was made will take a lot away from its scariness.
-
10When it seems creepy make fun of the movie with a friend. "Oh yeah, talk to the random creepy stranger in a trench coat wearing a black hat- he'll be so nice!"
-
11When they say scary movies are based on a real story it's not true, they just say that to scare you even more. It is another attempt to give the movie scarier realism.
-
12Think of the psychological reasons why that particular film scared you. It'll remind you that it's all in your head.
-
13Remember that nothing like what happened to the characters has happened to you before. Why would it happen now? Why would zombies suddenly exist just after you watched a zombie movies and not before? And why would the zombies or monster just so happen to be in your town?Source : wikihow.com
