Hi merfolks, I have a pretty intense fear of swimming in lakes or bodies of water I can't see down into. I'm perfectly alright swimming in the open ocean when it's clear (like around Guam/Micronesia). To be honest right now.. I'm afraid of seeing dead people in lakes. Scuba diving in the ocean is no problem at all because my head has this rationalization that the currents would carry bodies deeper and I know of all the fish that eat decaying matter..
Any and all tips are appreciated. I go to college in southwest Missouri and would like to have the courage to swim in the lakes in my future tail.
I'm happy to talk to anybody if you have strategies for getting over fears. 😅❤️
