I've had a fear of the EAS for 7 1/2 years. I remember seeing it as a toddler when it showed up on TV, I didn't have the phobia at the time but I was just stuck standing there, staring at the TV, motionless. Then when it ended I just continued jumping on my bed. 4 or 5 years go on and when I was ready to sleep, I thought it was remotely okay to keep the TV on while going to bed. Then I woke up from this "ERRRRRR" noise, then I opened my eyes... and screamed at the top of my lungs... This woke my parents up because I instantly ran upstairs to tell them what was going on. But then it was gone. I described it as "a VERY scary thing on the TV!" because I didn't even know a thing about it.

1 year later, when I was going to sleep with the TV on AGAIN, I woke up to it again... I didn't scream, but I instantly tried to turn the TV off. It worked, waited a little bit, then I turned on the TV and went back to sleep again.

1 year passes by and I wanted to check out the "VERY scary thing on the TV" again. So I was like "WOW! I can get a LOT of views from this!" For some reason, I wasn't even scared for had a feeling of fright when I was going to do this. When I was getting ready to record at night, the EAS surprisingly came on, I don't know why, but I was SCARED when it came on when I wasn't scared while watching other EAS videos on Youtube. Then I ran up the stairs again until it was over. "Wow, good going RSSMii." saying to myself.

When I was 11, playing right next to the tv while charging my phone, I looked up to see the moment of silence on the TV, then right before your eyes, I ran while covering my ears as hard as I could. When it was over, I turned off the TV and continued to play in peace and fright.

Nowadays I keep seeing Weekly EAS tests. Still scared of them, but I just stare at the TV until it's over. Then I sometimes get nightmares of it.
