    Sims that confront their fear of the dark will not continue to be affected by the Afraid of the Dark Scared Moodlet buff.

    Fixed in Patch 1.97.42/1.73

    If you're still experiencing this issue, please create a new thread.

Just a theory, is it possible that they reason you can't equip the fear of dark trait is that your sim has the 'brave' trait? I haven't tried this and that particular bug hasn't happened to me but I think not being able to equip the trait has to be something particular to that sim so it's worth testing out, either the brave trait or some other trait blocking it, and having the wants and fears setting flag turned on or off.

That being said i can't believe this still hasn't been fixed

@UnsecretIdentity Thanks, that fixed it. Removed the Brave trait and made sure wants were enabled, which let me add the Fear of the Dark trait. First attempt to remove it didn't work but the second time I got a whim prompt to be confident while in the dark, so I had my Sim drink a confidence potion while outside at night and that seems to have gotten rid of both the moodlet and the fear entirely. Fingers crossed that it sticks!
