Thread: Fear of heights!!

No fear of heights for me, but for some reason, I just cannot get more than a couple thousand feet in the air.
It's a real bummer, because I want to walk on the surface of the Moon! I want to fly throught the turbulent atmosphere of Jupiter! I want to visit Voyager and see how it is doing!

Flying is my favorite thing to do...the freedom of it. But sometimes i get a fear of falling when i 'take off'

By the way, Welcome to DV!

im afraid of heights in real life but i never seem to experience it when im dreaming.

Well, I'm afraid of heights in waking and dreaming.. the funny thing is .. I didnt think It would be scary in my dreams.. So I just aim for the sky and every time .. same thing.. I get a few thousand feet if that and prolly my biggest mistake.. I look down.. DONT LOOK DOWN!! haha never works.. It doesn't even hurt to hit the dream ground.. I have fallen off buildings and out of trees.. I know this but does my sub conscious.. Either way, I love how incredibly realistic all my lucid dreams are and I wouldn't change it for all the courage in the sky

Try to conquer this fear of heights in the waking reality.
Dont go try and fly , but try to stand on high surfaces looking down, just be careful.

Hopefully, if my theory works out, if you conquer this in the waking world for long enough, the learned, or conditioned behaviour will be transfered to the dreaming reality.

Try maybe going super duper fast to get out of the atmosphere in like one second, that way you don't have time to look down before you escape the pull of Earth's Gravity

Or that.

Also, you could start flying at a small level above the earth and then progress.

Or you don't even have to fly at all just transmit yourself above the Earths atmosphere. By imagining that you're there. Thats the fastest way I get around.

Or have some elevator or spaceship with a solid bottom move you up so you won't be able to see how far you are up.
