    When many people go out to travel, they will see that many projects involve climbing tourism projects, such as rock climbing, mountaineering or some glass trestle bridges. Many people maintain a high level of curiosity about these things, because people are afraid of something and want to challenge it. Therefore, many people will find that they have some fear of heights when they walk on the glass trestle, and some not only dare not walk, but also feel very nervous.

    But why would anyone be afraid of heights? It's a death anxiety that comes from within.

    When you stand on a high place, your vision and mind will change, and when you connect your inner world and the brain with what you see, you will lose your balance, and your heart will be deeply afraid. Or the brain exaggerates the height and then produces a series of hallucinations, some people will feel very anxious when standing in a high place, not only will they always associate some terrible things, but also have a rapid heartbeat, gastrointestinal discomfort, and symptoms such as weakness and nausea in the limbs. The main reason is that I am too scared in my heart, so I feel some discomfort in my body.

    And the greater the deviation in the judgment of distance, the stronger the feeling of fear of heights.

    Many people have an innate fear of heights, and it is also a form of human self-preservation. When people encounter danger, the amygdala in the brain will be vigorously active, and this amygdala in the brain will make us feel anxious, aware of danger or the current environment is more frightening. And these activities in the brain make our hearts beat faster, as well as our hearts pump a lot of blood.

    There is also a series of uncomfortable changes in our body, all because of the role played by this amygdala. But what we call fear of heights is not equated with some of us who don't want to climb high.

    Because some people are afraid to ascend because of the normal physiological response of the body, it is the amygdala of the brain that plays a role. And the fear and physical reaction are not so strong, but if it is a fear of heights, it is a mental disorder, and they have an excessive fear of the environment in high places. Or they are more afraid of heights than normal people, so a series of physical manifestations will occur, such as chest tightness and shortness of breath, rapid heartbeat and so on.

    Moreover, people with fear of heights will have compulsive intentions when they are in high places, for example, they are worried that when they jump down, they may really jump. People with a fear of heights like this will also not choose to live in tall buildings because this symptom can also affect all aspects of their lives.

    The two must not be equated, acrophobia means that as long as you are in a high place, you will feel fear and fear, and fear of climbing is just an activity of being afraid of climbing.

    Fear of climbing is just the fear of climbing, which does not mean that you will be afraid when you reach a high place, and fear of heights is that you will feel scared and panic as long as you are in a high place.

First and foremost, don't look down. Secondly, you have to imply in your heart that you are on flat ground and that there is no danger. Finally, give yourself the encouragement to believe that you will be able to walk through it, you will be able to overcome the fear of heights, if you think you can do the above points, then you can go to a slightly higher place and try it slowly, and then increase it a little bit, and you can overcome it after many times. ‍‍
