The experiences of the death of Blanche's family and husband affected her sense of reality and caused her to experience illusions.  in the text it states, "Yes, that’s where I brought my victims. Yes, I had a lot of intimacy with strangers. After the death of Allan — intimacy with strangers was all I seemed able to fill my empty hearty with. " This quote shows that death of Allan, Blanches husband affects her death

These experiences that Blanche has been through builds up inside of her. It does affect Blanche herself and how she behaves. If she continues to build her emotions, it will get to a point where she will eventually explode and let all her rage and emotion out that she has been keeping inside for so long. Blanche does have Thanatophobia because had witness her family death and it could cause her to act differently

These experiences affect Blanche's and how she behaves in the story because she suffered through many deaths throughout her family as she has lost everyone she loved and all she has left is Stella. I think Blanche does have thanatophobia because of the way she acts about the idea of death. In the story she says, "Funerals are quiet-- but death is different." This shows how the death in her family has given her a great fear of death and it has affected her health heavily.

Blanche has let her past experiences with death make her scared. The evidence "I took the blows... his tent on our doorstep" shows us that she thinks death is following her and will get her eventually. She also witnessed her husbands death. Her life has been crowded with death and she thinks it will happen to her.

I believe that these experiences have negatively affected Blanche in many ways. The experiences of death being so close to her has definetley done a number on her. It has made her realize the importance of leaving a legacy behind for the next generation so that they are in a better position. In the text, Blanche describes how the plot of land got smaller and smaller with each generation of her family. In other words, she is saddened at what her family's legacy has become. This leads to her mental decline and obsessiveness over preserving it for the future.

i think these experiences affect blanche and how she behaves in the story because she is loosing important people in her life. she feels alone and she is suffering from mental health issues since she is carrying up so much stress since she has no one to turn to and speak about how shes feeling. I believe she does suffer from thantophobia because she saw her husbands death as well as her family's death.

I think these experiences affect Blanche because of how all the death she has suffered through, from loved one to almost her whole family. In the text it stated, “Funerals are quiet, but deaths not always”. This evidence reveals how Blanche not only brought the news of her family’s death, but she witnessed all her family’s pain and suffering.

I think these experiences affect Blanche and how she behaves in the story because she keeps her emotions bottle up to the point that she 'explodes.' She explodes as in she creates her own world of fanasty as a way to escape the problems and feelings of guilt, sadness in reality.  This is shown when Blanche belives that a man name “Shep Huntleigh" will take care of her financial needs  because he is “supposedly”  overly obsessed and in love with her while she takes care of his other needs/desires. Blanche may have Thanatophobia because she saw her husbands death as well as her own family.

These experiences have affected Blanche in many ways. For example, the fact that her husband killed himself in front of Blanche shows that she will most likely not forget about that. Blanche seems like a strong person who focuses more on her legality and presents more than her past with the deaths. Due to that I do not think Blanche has thanatophobia since she is a strong individual.

Blanche has gone through a lot of trauma in the book. With her family and husband passing away, and even loosing the Belle Reve it did leave a mark on her actions. She has felt alone throughout the whole book, the main reason why she moved in with Stella is because she needed that family with her. She seems to always be afraid of loosing her legacy which is why she is so happy about Stella having a baby.

She becomes more hysteric as she recalls experiences relating to death, which includes witnessing the death of her family and her beloved. She develops severe paranoia of losing things she holds dear to her, which causes to become more obsessive and dependant on relationships she creates. She develops schitzophrenia as shown as when the blue piano is playing whenever a serious event occurs or if she is distressed, which is clearly in her head but is one of the methods she uses to soothe her in times of anxiety or distress. To society, she is seen as a pitied, deranged woman that needs saving due to her severe fear of loss.

These experiences have affected Blanche as she's afraid of losing things to death. She's faced the deaths of all her loved ones including her mother, father and Margaret. Blanche has Thanatophobia as she's afraid of dying or having other's that she cares about die. We see this fear conceptualize as she uses the metaphor of the Grim Reaper having a tent on their doorstep.

these experiences affect blanche in many ways. we see her become more anxious and hesitant, unstable and regretful. although she is aware that she doesn’t have much family left, she seems to be more shaken up about the legacy no longer being there. “Why, the Grin Reaper had to put up his tent on our doorstep!”, a quote from Blanche. she has experienced so much pain and so much heartbreak in such a short time span and as a reader it is hard to see her going through these changes.

I believe that these experiences affect Blanche because she feels alone and suffers from a lot of mental health issues. With all the stress she holds since she has no one to turn to its builds up and hurts her more. Since a lot of blanches family did die I believe she does suffer form thanatophobia because she wants to carry on her legacy. Blanche tries to avoid it and we see that by the way she tires acts.

Yes she have Thanatophobia because every time the she feel danger she her the piano playing and that is the result of when she saw her love husband death on the street.

In the eyes of society, Blanche is already a fallen woman. She lost her young husband to suicide years earlier, her family's estate is gone, and her indiscreet sexual behavior makes her a social outcast. She also has a serious drinking problem that she poorly conceals. Throughout the play, Blanche is haunted by the deaths of her ancestors, which she attributes to their “epic fornications.” In order to avoid accepting reality, Blanche withdraws completely into herself, revealing her irrationality. To escape completely, in any case, Blanche should come to see the outside world as that which she envisions in her mind. Blanche changes the outside world to fit her fantasies. The line between fantasy and reality is fluid in both the physical and mental realms. Despite the fact that reality will always win, Blanche's final, delusional happiness suggests that, to some extent, fantasy plays a significant role in every person's experience.

these experiences affect blanche very negatively. based off the way that she talks we can see that all of the death in the family took a very heavy toll on her. she also tries to blame stella for being absent and not helping her with the grief but all she did was only show up for the funerals. she feels very alone because she has no one to help comfort her. i believe that blanche does have thanatophobia because of the way she acts from experiencing all the death around her.
