Fear of heights

alejandraisabelibanezplasencia — 2022-08-10 19:32:46 UTC

I am very afraid of heights. I've had this fear for two years, it started when I was 18. I started being frightened I think since I went in 2020 to climb a hill with my volunteer friends, to clean. I remember when we were going down, I felt very scared. I panicked and didn't want to go down, I started crying and my friends had to help me. Currently, I've not been to therapy and I think that this fear affects my life more when I want to climb or get on a high game.

My cousin is afraid of blood, when she was 6 years old she cut her hand, when she saw that her hand was bleeding, she wouldn't stop crying and was anxious. Every time she got a wound, she was nervous when she saw her blood and became very agitated. Now she avoids getting a wound, no matter how small it is, so she doesn't play sports.

Fear of the sea

My friend has been afraid of the sea since he was a child.
when he was eight years old, he traveled for the first time with his parents to see the sea. My friend was playing with sand on the seashore when he was overturned by a huge wave.
He got scared and cried a lot, because the salt water came in through his nose and mouth. He felt that he was going to die.
At night he sometimes had nightmares and trembled when he heard something related to the sea.
Currently is trying to overcome his fear, so he goes to therapy.

Acrophobia
My friend is very afraid of heights. He has acrophobia. When he is at a certain height he feels strange and gets to the point where he doesn't move because of the fear. When he has to go up, he prefers not to look down and continue. When he looks down, he gets very nervous and his head starts to hurt. As the years go by, he is less and less afraid of heights.

I'm afraid of heights. I've had this fear since childhood. It started when I was 10 years old. I started to be afraid because one day I went up to a game in the play land park, I remember that it was a horrible feeling, I cried a lot and wanted to get off, but the game had to end. Today I'm still afraid but not so much anymore, I've been able to live with it.

I am afraid of stinging insects, like bees.
I have this phobia since 2010.
It happened very fast, I was excited, walking with my friends to participate. Suddenly a bee attacked me on my arm, I am terrified until now because the pain was unbearable and the swelling was exaggerated. Every time I see a bee I have a panic attack.

Fear of height (Medina Joao)

I am afraid of heights for fear of falling.
I discovered it when on a walk there was an activity that was to jump from a height of 3 meters onto a large mat, which I couldn't do on the first try.
Although I ended up doing it, I experienced that fear from being at a considerable height that caused me to fear falling.

Trypophobia (CYNTHYA JIMENA ANGULO VENTURA)

I am very afraid of small holes. Trypophobia is the fear or repulsion generated by looking at or being close to closely spaced geometric figures, especially small holes and very small rectangles. I've had it since I was 5 years old, I don't do much to the walls because this happens or to look at the panels of the bees since it gives me anxiety and my head hurts.

FEAR OF COCKROACH

2022-08-11 23:35:06 UTC

My aunt is really afraid of cockroach. She panics when she sees one. This fear started about ten years ago when I experienced an uncomfortable situation. When she sees this insect, she gets very nervous and quickly runs out of the room. Usually, she can't perform her activities correctly if she saw this insect before. It's very difficult for her to be everywhere, because it isn't known where these insects will appear.

Cynophobia

t023600220 — 2022-08-12 02:05:33 UTC

My friend is very afraid of stray dogs. He had that fear for 5 years, since we studied at school. His fear of dogs started when one morning we were leaving school with a group of friends, we were walking fast to get to a sports field, but he didn't see a dog that was on the path we were walking on, and he stepped on that dog's paw dog. Suddenly, the dog bit my friend's leg. From that moment on, my friend began to have cynophobia. Until now, when my friend sees a dog on the street, he walks away from the dog because he thinks the dog is going to bite him. But the good thing is that, the fear he has towards dogs reduced considerably.

My friend, Kiara, suffers aerophobia, she has fear of flying on airplane. As long as he went to another country, she had panic attacks on the airplane, she thinks the airplane is going to crash.
I said to her that airplane accidents are so rare, I heard there's about a one in a eleven million chance a plane will crash.
Actually, statistics say travel by plane is more save than traveling by a car. Now, Kiara, need to travel more for work, so she needs to overcome her phobia.
