Anyone have acrophobia?
I had this one awful experience. My dad and I were driving home when the car broke down and we had to walk to the next town on foot. The road was a canyon road, one side had guard railings and I had to walk on that side. The steep cliffs freaked me out and I almost broke down in tears. I was ready to walk on the mountain side and risk getting hit by a car my fear was so intense. I was afraid the cars zooming by would startle me and I would trip over the guard rail and would have to be airlifted to a hospital when I hit the bottom of the slope. Anyone else have a similar experience? This is my idea of being put through hell. The only thing that would make it worse is if a truck full of bees followed beside me.
Is this acrophobia? Okay, I have to make this 20 characters.?
I have always gotten a weird feeling when I look up at the sky or fly a kite. When I do that, I feel imbalanced and get worried that I am going to float away. I can fight the feeling, and make it invisible. Also, I get overwhelmed by the size, and the vastness.

I have acrophobia and I have to go on a 45 foot high ropes course! How do I deal with it?
I have to go on a 45 foot high ropes course with my school. I have acrophobia or at least I think I do, I get all sweaty and shake and get dizzy and get a stomachache when I go up high , and I don't want to do it. I'm having an adernaline rush just thinking about it. But I think I should do it to overcome my fear. How do I deal with my fear before the course and as I'm climbing up there?
How to cure (or at least to manage myself from dangerous movement contemporarily) my acrophobia?
So, I am a true acrophobic. I'm not afraid of height that will not hurt me if I fall, but I am afraid of the height that people usually don't. I had tried to face it many times and couldn't manage myself. BTW, I'm a boy. And that's why I'm so ashamed of myself The 1st try I have done was when my new house being built. The stairway from floor 2 to 3 was not yet completed with the handle. I couldn't help myself becauseI know if I fall down, I would just die, but the stairway is large too. And anyway, my family went all up including my mom and my little sister and I could not and I had to wait for them.The 2nd time was when I came with my gf to a fair. We got in the ferris wheel 1st, then the cable aerial chairs at the height as the 5th floor or so. And I freaked out but I tried to managed for my gf was there, but it seemed that it wasn't successful and I had to close my eyes all the way. IDK What should I do to at least manage it. PLEASE DO NOT DEFINE THE REASON WHY I AM AFRAID. IT'S MY INBORN INSTINCT NOT FROM ANY EVENTS BEFORE AND SO PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO MANAGE MYSELF WHEN BAD SHITS HAPPENING DEFINITELY, NOT PRACTICE
Is acrophobia considered as a dual diagnosis?
I'm afraid of heights. I don't like the feeling of being " on top of the world" . I don't know the thrill that roller coasters, bungee jumping or rock climbing bring. Unlike most people, I don't plan on visiting the Eiffel Tower of Paris or the Leaning Tower of Pisa. I don't even know the feeling of traveling via an airplane. My friend told me that specific phobias are types of dual diagnosis. Do I have dual diagnosis? Do I need to get treatment?

Acrophobia - Need help?
I have acrophobia since last 3 years. As a child I had no fear of going to the top of my apartment and clicking a few photos . But suddenly 3 years back , when I went to a mates apartment which was at top floor I looked out and it was dizzy , my legs were trembling and I had this thought " what if I jumped" . I am not suicidal in real life , but there is the instantaneous urge that builds up in me . Now the problem is I am shifting my office to a new location and it is in top floor and hence I am really worried . I know this is a very worrying question .But please do give you sincere advise .I have Social Anxiety Disorder , Depression . The problem is that the stimulant for this can be anything as simple as a gesture of somebody suppose he has a intimidating look that will trigger this feeling . I know I am crazy . Please help me . Thanks
Is it Acrophobia ???
A long time ago i rode a roller coaster.... It was my first one so i was kind of excited... Well when i rode it i started crying and shaking and couldn't scream but since it was my first i thought that was normal... Then 5 years later i went to sixflags rode a kids roller coaster and i couldn't scream either and i was shaking... Same thing happened at the fair the same year... Now yesterday i went to sixflags again and i was going to ride goliath... When we were in line i was tottally fine but as we started getting closer i started getting pale, shaking, and my heart was beating really fast... When it was my turn to ride it i froze up, became dizzy, started shaking even more, i couldn't speak, started breathing fast, and started crying without wanting to... It was embarrasingg lol but i have always been afraid of being high up but i thought everyone was and i didnt think it was that bad to the point that i would cry ... So is this acrophobia or am i just bein delusional? And how can i overcome it... People tell me that i can get rid of my fear of roller coasters by ridding one but everytime i do it just gets worse... What can i do?
