50 Spine-Chilling Photos Of The Creepiest Things People Have Witnessed (New Pics)
Interview With ExpertThe comfort zone is that cozy place where we feel the most safe and at ease. It comes in all shapes and sizes, and what brings peace to one person doesn’t always have the same effect on another. Finding the willingness to leave can be just as hard, but it has to be done in order to grow and improve as a person.
Today, we’re kickstarting the journey out of the comfort zone by sharing the most uneasy and strange-looking photos people have posted on the subreddit r/Weird. From creepy ransom notes to real human skull necklaces, these eerie experiences are guaranteed to make you uncomfortable.
While you’re at it, don’t forget to check out a conversation with licensed clinical psychologist Aimee Daramus, Psy.D., and psychologist and author Ashley J. Smith, PhD, who kindly agreed to tell us more about the comfort zone.

The British Heart Foundation has revealed that over half of its nation doesn’t venture outside of their comfort zones, with 45% saying they might regret it in the future. Every second British person admits sticking to the same routine every day, and almost a third can’t remember the last time they tried something challenging or new.
To learn more about our habits and leaving our comfort zones, we reached out to licensed clinical psychologist Aimee Daramus, Psy.D., and psychologist and author Ashley J. Smith, PhD.

According to both psychologists, avoiding leaving our safe space can have negative effects on our mental health. “Staying inside your comfort zone reinforces anxiety,” said Smith. “By that, I mean that the more you stay inside your comfort zone, the more you will want to. Stepping or stretching outside your comfort zone will make you feel anxious and uncomfortable.”

Smith also mentions, “Over time, you'll likely find that your comfort zone shrinks and that more things will make you feel uncomfortable. Conversely, stepping outside of your comfort zone helps expand it—you'll get more comfortable with more things, anxiety will go down, and your confidence tends to increase.”

Meanwhile, Daramus further explains that many stay in it because leaving often brings up fear, anger, disgust, and other uneasy emotions. In order to make breaking out of their comfort zone easier, she encourages people to keep in mind that “feelings are usually opinions, not facts.” So if doing something makes a person nervous, it’s worth asking if there’s actually any danger in a situation before reacting.
Someones Car
So they loaded up the truck and moved to Beverly.
In Germany this car would have been stopped by the police because he can‘t see and this might be dangerous in a pedestrian accident.
I have seen this car in Atlanta, GA. Only the front window does not have dolls.
Are there no laws in the US which place any limits on the ratbaggery (Google it, if you must) that people commit with their vehicles?
I'm from the USA and honestly have no clue what laws exist in the state of Georgia re what makes a car fit for use. I'd imagine there are laws, but there are a few locations in the states that you just roll your eyes, because it hurts your brain to figure it out.

This wouldn't even be road-legal over here, seems like in the US, you can drive anything in any condition o.O
Maybe it's to add weight to hold yhe vehicle down in twister weather?
Load More Replies...There's someone in West Seattle who has a Subaru painted in zebra stripes and has small plastic animals glued all over it. Kind of cool if you're a zookeeper, kind of strange if you're just going to Walgreens.
There are some utterly FRIGHTENING looking dolls on that thing. Some meld (not "melt". Meld) together to make it look like other creepier stuff (on mobile the pic is small so omg the s**t im seeing....) from a demonic 4 eyed crow wearing a whitish veil with an Orangish beak pointing down toward its feet, to the reddish skinned person sitting at the very top left with short black hair, reddish forehead visible, wearing a black shirt/hoodie (still dolls but melded together) sitting in front of some tall corn plants to the left. Looks like "their right hand" is bent up a bit, hand by the waist and hand is gripping something. That was the 1st thing I saw and was gonna enlarge the pic to look for more ppl hiding. Then I saw what it really was and flipped s**t. Ew too many dolls.
How did you see all that detail on one doll. Not sure what type of device you were looking at it through though. I just use a tablet so something like this looks real small. Hard to see any detail.
Load More Replies...How are they all attached? What does it look like from other angles? Is it a car or a truck/lorry? So many questions!!
I have a neighbor who has done the same thing. I don't see how he can drive. Personally, I think he's nutty as a pecan orchard.
Love how it's at the intersection of 13th street. 🧙♀️👻☠️
I wonder if this weirdo lives in Chapel Hill, NC. Some chick that drives a Honda has c**p like this on her car.
That looks more like a subconscious admission of someone having emotional issues than it looks like a vehicle 🫤
As long as safety devices aren't covered you can make a fool of yourself like this.

If an individual has particular things they’re uncomfortable with, Smith says that looking at pictures from this list related to them can help expand their comfort zone. “It's a technique psychologists call exposure, which is essentially facing your fear until you learn that you can handle it. Over time, the fear itself tends to decrease as you get used to it.”

I Woke Up With This On My Leg
Please go to a doctor, if that's a bite from a handful of spider species, that could be necrotic and get really bad really quickly, also please keep an eye out for any red lines traveling up your leg, that's blood poisoning. It looks like you traced around it to see if it's spreading, if you didn't then you should but for real, please see a doctor.
According to Daramus, for some, these pictures can be a little intense. Therefore, she recommends they try something less acute. “For example, if you're uncomfortable with dating, try something safer, like a group date with trusted friends, and then ease into more high-pressure situations. When you can, ease into a new situation,” she said.

Those who find the strength to leave their comfort zone often reap its benefits. “Getting comfortable with being uncomfortable builds confidence and courage, and is a key to living a bold life,” said Smith.

Meanwhile, Daramus believes that leaving it can open so many new opportunities. “There are so many interesting places to go, and interesting people to meet. New skills that you might want to try out. You can't usually be good at something until you go through the phase where you're bad at it, so don't worry if getting out of your comfort zone is difficult at first.”
