How to over come them?
I've always been afraid of them, but it's worst now. About a month ago, I saw one while rollerblading on the bicycle path close to my house. He was running away from me so I wasn't so afraid. But I haven't been biking or rollerblading since. Haven't been walking either.
Thursday of last week (the 17th), I saw another one. This time, it was in my ward. I live in the basement so I have to go in by the back. So after school, I do like the usual...look around the yard to see if there's one. I didn't see anything so I continued to the door. Then I looked up and noticed a bear. It was about four meters away, on the lawn. But there's this 5 foot wall and he just jumped off!! Like right in front of me!! I didn't get a chance to open the door so I just screamed and ran away...
Ever since, I've been freaking out! So far, in my town, the game wardens have caught 10 bears!! Twice we've found crap on our balcony...and I just keep thinking that one of them is going to break the big patio door and come in the house and stuff. I'm terrified. I'm shaking just thinking about it and writing this message.
Does anyone have advice? This is really affecting me. I haven't been in school for the past week...I can't sleep. Every little sound, crack makes me jump...
