Fear of heights (Acrophobia) is quite common, but when it starts interfering with daily life and limits experiences, it’s worth addressing. Since you’ve noticed it worsening over time, it might be due to heightened awareness, past experiences, or anxiety-related factors. The good news is that this fear can be managed and even overcome with the right approach.

Hi Acrophobia is one of the most common phobias. And yes it does increase with age. Consult a psychologist where she would dig up your past, as to when, where and how this phobia started. What are your thoughts and feelings behind this fear. Gradual exposure to heights- exposing to least height to high heights will help you cope with the fear. Of course this will be done as per your comfort. Since it is hampering your daily routine, consultation would need priority.

Yes fear of heights can be cured by CBT....and therapies and breathing exercises.... Imagine standing in the brick which 5cm tall and if you are scared of such small height breathing slowly will calm you down... Afterwards stand in a chair ... Practise breathing, then a small ladder and practise breathing ... gradually face your fear along with breathing exercises... You ll be able to overcome with practise..... If hill stations are overwhelming then avoid for now.

Hi, Yes, fear of heights, known as acrophobia, can indeed be addressed and managed effectively. Since this fear is increasing and impacting your daily life, it’s important to consider seeking help from a mental health professional, particularly one who specializes in anxiety disorders or phobias. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is a common and effective treatment that can help you challenge and change the negative thought patterns associated with your fear. Gradual exposure therapy is another approach where you can face your fear in small, manageable steps, slowly increasing your exposure to heights over time in a controlled and supportive manner. Furthermore, relaxation techniques such as deep breathing or mindfulness can help you manage anxiety when confronted with heights. Engage in physical activities that can help build confidence in your body’s capabilities, and consider joining support groups where you can connect with others who share similar experiences. Remember, with the right support and strategies, it is possible to reduce your fear and improve your quality of life.
