Afraid of monsters
You have always been a person who struggles with chronic pain. It started with a car accident when you were in your early twenties, and ever since then, you have been dealing with constant headaches, backaches, and other types of pain. At first, you tried to manage the pain with over-the-counter medication, but it wasn't enough. So, you turned to prescription painkillers, and at first, they worked wonders. You were able to function normally, and the pain was manageable. However, as time went on, you found that you needed more and more of the pills to get the same effect. You started to feel like you were addicted, but you couldn't stop taking them. You needed them just to get through the day.
