Toddler started using potty then stopped and refuses to use it, she say's that she is scared!?
She was using the potty and the toilet for everything even in middle of the night for around a week and a half. All of a sudden one day she stopped using it and that was the end of it. Now every time I ask her if she wants to use the potty or toilet she say's that she is scared! Please help

It is normal to backpedal a bit when getting potty trained. You make progress and then something can happen that sends them back to before they did anything. Ask her why she is scared and see if you can hold her hand and help her overcome what she is afraid of. Go with her, hold her hand. She may well have gotten spooked, especially if she went in the middle of the night or if she heard a sound or felt alone. There are a lot of things children react to that can frighten them. Mine became frightened of shoes. Just once I'd love to climb inside a child's mind and see what goes on there.
