Don't Be Scared is singer-songwriter Daniel Johnston's second self-released album, recorded and released in 1982. It was re-released on cassette in 1986 by Stress Records, a label run by Johnston's friend and manager Jeff Tartakov, on mp3 by emusic.com in 2000 and on CDR by Eternal Yip Eye Music in 2004.

"I Had Lost My Mind" features prominently in the 2006 documentary feature on Johnston's life The Devil and Daniel Johnston. The song was accompanied in the film by animation created from cels drawn by Johnston in a book that he had intended to submit to a local competition.

"The Story of an Artist" was notably covered by M. Ward.
