I'm not entirely sure if this goes in this forum, but it's here anyway.
By the "monster under your bed" I mean something that makes you feel scared, or anxious, or sad, or angry all the time, or almost all the time. Something that makes you always feel weird, or pressured, or nervous. Something that seems to always be watching you, like a monster under your bed at night.
I know that some or most of you might not want to share these thoughts, but this is a thread for you to let pent up feelings and thoughts out. I'm sure that some of you are reading this saying "this is an online website, you're telling this to strangers. Go tell your friends or parents or something." But I'll make this thread anyway. Even if I'm the only one that uses it.

The monster under my bed is the thought that I, or one of my family members or friends will die right this moment.
Whenever I'm alone I feel the monster's piercing gaze... Whenever my mom is late coming back from work, or my parents are out for a long time, I always guess the worst case scenario, that they've passed on. It scares me out of my mind, but it's always my first (and almost always my only) thought.
At night when I'm fixing my bed before lying down, I always feel as if there is someone behind me with a gun pointed at the back of my head, or with a knife about to slit my throat.
Maybe I'm just paranoid, or maybe my fear of death is getting to me, but this monster terrifies me. It's the monster under my bed. -
I dont have one.
When I saw the title I thought you were going to ask it literally - as in what kind of monster did we think was under our bed when we were younger or something. -
Gerik the giant spider lives under my bed he used to wear pink now he wears black

Well, speaking more literally, when I go to sleep at night, I never stand that close to my bed for too long. Ever since I watched House of Wax when I was really young, I always had a fear of getting the back of my foot clipped. I am better now, but I will admit, I still do it a little... I don't even like it when my feet are hanging on my bed.

The monster under my bed is the thought that everything I do and think is unimportant and worthless because of my age. I always look down upon my past self. Twelve is such a pathetic age to be. I fear that in twenty years, all my values and beliefs will be different. I'll be an entirely different person and, like most everyone, look down upon my middle school self. I hardly want to do anything because I worry about my older self making fun of it. What's the point? If everything I do is just a phase, if it's just some stupid twelve year old thing, why do it?
