Please use this thread going forward: Sim Gets Fear of the Dark After Being Cured (Patch 1.97.42) | EA Forums - 5036599
Again with the Fear of the Dark problem...
I've had the child Sim drink the Fear Be Gone and get rid of the fear, but whenever she goes outside- day or night- there is the Scared moodlet again. It's making it impossible for her to progress with her aspiration and it's incredibly frustrating.
I saw this was marked as Fixed... lol.
C'mon EA, can you sort this out now? This is not a new issue.
Marked as Solution for Visibility. This is still an open issue.
@ThisMicrophone The potions seems to be still bugged. It just removes the trait but nothing else.
Try if the following steps work for you.
1. Re-add the trait with the cheat; traits.equip_trait trait_Fear_Dark
2. Wait until you get the fear resolve want.
3. Buy a confidence potion
4. Go outside in the dark and drink it.
5. The fear should resolve for good.
I think that finally got it! Thanks so much Crinrict- you're a star!!
Thank you very much, Crin. Seems like this resolved the moodlet issues for now. I had Confident on my Sim when she finally had the Fear appear just to be extra sure.

I tried this several times and the moodlet still will not stay gone. It really is ruining the game. I even went so far as to save my family and home after the moodlet went away and started a new save file and she was still randomly getting it at all times and acting terrified. I am starting over with a new sim
@moonstruck22 I'm not sure if I can post a link here but if you're open to mods, there's one on curseforge that fixes it. Just search Get No Fears by TearsofTyr and there's a module that only removes the fear of dark buff.
