I did up until about 2nd grade, but eventually I just became used to the alarms, and it went away.
As a kid I was never afraid of alarms per say, more of certain loud noises especially smoke alarms, fire alarms (especially AC vibratory horns), and sirens. I got over the fear in 10th grade when I happen to be sitting directly in front of an MT-WM in a portable classroom during a fire drill. Now I’m use to it and for the most past it doesn’t bother me, at times I do still get a bit uneasy being in a small room (one person restroom size) with certain horn/strobes in it.
I only really had it if I was in the bathroom when the alarm went off in elementary school because I thought that the 4904-9138s would end up going off not knowing they were only STROBES. It got so bad that I peed myself rather than go to the bathroom in the 4th grade.
In junior high school and high school it went away SOMEWHAT as long as I didn’t suspect or know about the fire alarm going off.
I suppose I had that when I was in elementary and middle school. It doesn’t bother me much anymore now, so that’s good.
In general–sudden, loud noises like fire alarms would scare me, but I admit I did have this fear whenever I found out there was going to be a fire drill. I was really sensitive to fire alarm noises during my elementary school years; I dreaded going through fire drills so much that I would cry, plug my ears as tightly as I could, babble nonsense, stand near the exit door so that I could be the first one out away from the noise, and so on. The fact that I had (and still have) Asperger’s Syndrome exacerbated these fears. The times the fire alarm would go off without warning, surprisingly, were a lot less dramatic than when I was told. Even though I dreaded fire drills, I was very much fixated on the fire alarms themselves, and that’s part of the reason why I got into the hobby of fire alarms.
As I entered the 6th grade, I discovered the video sharing website YouTube, and curiously decided to type fire alarm keywords in the search box, just to see what would pop up. I was anxious at first and had the volume on the computer turned all the way down. Gradually, however, I turned up the volume and started searching for more videos, and things just took off from there.
One time in middle school, I actually faked an illness and skipped an entire day just to get out of two fire drills that were scheduled to be held. (It didn’t matter much, though, because there were two more fire drills held the day after, when I was in attendance.) Throughout my grade school years, I did have special education teachers that knew about my fire drill fears, and they would help me handle fire drills as best as I could. There was one time in elementary school I recall being taken outside on several occasions before a fire drill started. By the time I got into high school, I was still made very nervous about fire drills being announced; in fact, I actually left one of my classrooms once five minutes before a fire drill was scheduled, plugged my ears, and hid out in a storage room nearby, humming the sound of the alarm. Since then, I have become much more mature and better-equipped mentally to handle fire drills.
The fire alarm sounding when I was younger always startled me a bit (I think that goes for anybody) but I can’t say I was ever anxious of fire drills themselves. I’d say the same still goes nowadays.
Honestly, until around 6th grade I couldn’t have cared less about fire alarms. I barely ever noticed them except at school during drills/false alarms. After that my classes moved to the Middle School wing of the building which had 9845 mechanical horns. During the first fire drill of that year I thought all the different pitches sounded pretty cool (compared to the TrueAlerts in the rest of the building) so my interest started there 
Two fire drills done on the same day? Two more fire drills done the day after? Four fire drills in such a short time period? None of my schools would conduct more than one fire drill in such a short time period.
This was a common practice during my elementary, middle, and high school years. Since Michigan House Bill 4713 went into effect in 2014, school districts have been required to space more drills apart from each other. But there are still several schools in my district that conduct fire drills (and occasionally tornado drills) in the same day.
Yep. It’s worst for electronic horns. My elementary school having EH-DL1s and my 4/5/6/7 school in Ohio having Commander2s in every room made it worse. Combine the fact that my elem school often announced there would be one that day beforehand and the 4/5/6/7 posted the drill schedule (with times) online. I typically faked an illness if a drill was scheduled. Missed all but 1 drill and a real fire during 7th grade because of that (a rescheduled drill for one scheduled the day after the fire was not listed on the schedule). The phobia started my interest in alarms. I’ve never had the fear show in places other than school or hotels.
My middle and high schools did 2-4 fire drills/day. Really the only way to do it in Western New York before the risk of cold weather if you can’t have a drill every day due to events. If I suspected a bunch of drills would happen, I’d fake an illness. Successfully predicted drills ~50% of the time. Middle school wasn’t so bad, as the 2901-9838s in every part of the building I was typically in weren’t too grating. The EST Genesis and Integrity horns at the high school were a different story. After the first drill of the day, I’d often spend the beginning of non-lunch periods in the counseling office, which was relatively soundproof so the sound of the alarm going off was not disturbing.
I even picked a college for undergrad that had EVAC in the dorms to avoid the nonsense. The EST default message with hi-lo was a nice treat (that I heard much too often). Pretty much got over it by my junior year, when I moved in a building with Advances on continuous (I spent my days in the lab, so I wasn’t worried about drills and the smokes weren’t connected to the system). The apartment building I live in now has TrueAlerts and, thanks to the time-delayed smokes, I have ample warning to get out and get some severely-needed exercise before the building alarm activates.
My elementary school did two fire drills a day sometimes. I assume once for the AM kindergarten and another for the PM kindergarten.
I’m only afraid of the alarms when they start sounding. After that, I’m enjoying the sound of the alarm.
I used to be scared of the EST 792’s in my elementary school until 4th grade, when I began to be comfortable with the alarms, although I had enjoyed fire alarms as early as 2nd grade.
No, unless the alarm sounds in a creepy place at night.
I used to when I was in Kindergarten, The alarm went off as I was in the bathroom. In 1st grade, The Plant Manger at my elementary school, showed me the panel. My interest started there!
