Today, I went to the Grand Canyon with my family. Also today, I found out that I have a crippling fear of heights. My family left me on a ledge hyperventilating and having a mental breakdown, while they hiked for another 2 hours. They won't stop telling me how pretty it was and what I missed. FML

Today, I went to a theme park with my friends. I was excited to ride the rollercoasters, but just as we were about to get on the biggest one, I realized I'd had left my glasses in the car. I can't see shit without them, but I decided to go on the ride anyway. I spent the entire time screaming in terror while my friends laughed, while I couldn't see a thing. FML

Good money or not, one of them should have been a ******* good parent or sibling and stayed with her while the others moved on. Leaving someone hyperventilating is not safe at all.

#51 She deserves it for having a fear? Aren't you charming.

some people are differnt and everyone has a fear so just lay off her! my gosh

She deserves it. I know we are all afraid of something but if you don't suck it up and keep moving, you fail at life. Her family should have left her there and gone back home. Maybe have another baby in hopes it wouldn't turn out so bad.

A fear and a phobia are different. People can overcome fears but phobias can completely shut someone down.

And where did it say phobia? Oh, that's right! It didn't! Besides, I think you can overcome anything mental like that if you really try. If you can't you should just off yourself.

When the OP said they were hyperventilating and having a mental breakdown. Not sure about you, but I don't normally get like that if I'm just scared of something.

Fear and phobias are different, yes, but you can overcome them both. There's something to be said for facing your fears and/or phobias and getting over them. That is the ONLY WAY to over come either one. You've got to be exposed to your fear/phobia and get used to it before it goes away.

That's true but your family really shouldn't leave you alone if you have a phobia.

...but is th Grand Canyon really a good place to start off facing a fear of heights? Really?

#26 Oh right, anything mental? So I can also overcome my autism? Please publish this information somewhere, since you've just proven thousands of psychologists wrong.

How unfortunate! But I find hard to believe you've lived and didn't realise you were afraid of heights?
