This question comes up from time to time, and we always get the same well-meaning answers, but the truth is some people gets the creeps under water and some do not. The people who don’t experience it will not understand it. The problem you are talking about has nothing to do with rational fears like sharks or entanglements. It is simply the creeps. It seems to be much worse in low vis situations. Under piers and under boats are common places to get the creeps. A lot of diving experience will help, but it may not completely go away.
