Some people\u2019s fear is full-on <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Acrophobia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">acrophobia<\/a> \u2014 making it almost physically impossible to drive across bridges, walk close to a floor-to-ceiling window in a tall building, or even climb a ladder. Since acrophobia is an actual condition, it has actual symptoms:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Breathlessness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dizziness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Light-headedness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vertigo<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Excessive sweating<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Muscle tension<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tremors<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Heart palpitations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stomach cramps<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nausea<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Headaches<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Panic<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Acute anxiety<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">(Sheesh!!)&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In acrophobic people, these symptoms can be triggered by the simple act of standing on a chair. They\u2019re often prescribed medication to be able to lead normal lives.<br><br>But there\u2019s a wide range of severity when it comes to being afraid of heights, and one\u2019s ability to overcome that fear varies from person to person. There are things you can do to help minimize your fear of high up places, including flying as high up as possible and jumping out of the airplane!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Using Skydiving to Work Through a Fear of Heights<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"2240\" src=\"https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Skydiving above the New York clouds\" class=\"wp-image-3354\" style=\"width:647px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-1600x1400.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-1440x1260.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-1280x1120.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-960x840.jpg 960w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-800x700.jpg 800w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-640x560.jpg 640w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-480x420.jpg 480w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-320x280.jpg 320w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-160x140.jpg 160w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-2000x1750.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-1500x1313.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-1000x875.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-500x438.jpg 500w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-114x100.jpg 114w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/G0134042-610x534.jpg 610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Want to use skydiving as a \u201cworkshop\u201d to help you get through your fear of heights? Plenty of people have done it! The sport\u2019s extensive regulations and <a href=\"https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/blog\/is-skydiving-safe\/\">excellent safety record<\/a> make it the perfect environment to step out of your comfort zone with confidence.&nbsp;<br><br>If that\u2019s your goal, here\u2019s how to make your jump a personal victory:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. Give Yourself Permission to Be Scared<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/blog\/is-skydiving-scary\/\">Everybody\u2019s scared<\/a> when they skydive for the first time. We would actually be worried if you weren\u2019t! You won\u2019t be the first wide-eyed student your <a href=\"https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/first-time-skydiving-ny\/\">tandem instructor<\/a> has seen this week \u2014 or even today. If you admit that you\u2019re terrified, the people on the dropzone will rally around to support you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Do Your Research<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can take steps toward overcoming your fear of heights before you even head to the dropzone. <a href=\"https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/blog\/first-time-skydiving-what-to-expect\/\">Understanding what to expect<\/a> and what skydiving entails can get you in a good headspace to focus on the moment when it finally comes. Watching other tandem skydiving videos on YouTube and reading <a href=\"https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/about\/reviews\/\">customer reviews<\/a> can give you a great idea of how other people reacted to their own jumps. You can even seek out experiences of other jumpers who have a fear of heights!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Visualize Success<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Close your eyes and imagine yourself nailing the exit, perfecting the <a href=\"https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/blog\/the-skydiving-pose-every-beginner-needs-to-know-the-arch\/\">arch position<\/a>, and sticking the landing. Visualize the equipment supporting and surrounding you. Let these feelings of security sink deep into your subconscious, where they can help you when your heart starts pounding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Breathe!<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anxiety-inducing situations (like jumping out of an airplane flying miles up in the sky) have the unnerving tendency to make people forget to breathe. And not breathing makes anxiety so much worse. <a href=\"https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/blog\/can-you-breathe-while-skydiving\/\">Can you breathe while skydiving<\/a>? Yes! Make sure you get plenty of oxygen by taking deep, regular belly breaths. Your brain will reward you for the gift of O2 with extra relaxation when you need it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5. Use Your Resources<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are here for you from the moment you step foot on the dropzone. Your tandem instructor is highly experienced and extensively trained. They know everything there is to know about skydiving! Don\u2019t be afraid to <a href=\"https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/first-time-skydiving-ny\/faqs\/\">ask any questions you have<\/a>, and let them know if you have some hesitations around heights. They can help you work through anything you need before getting into the airplane.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"484\" src=\"https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/skydiving-quotes-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/skydiving-quotes-1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/skydiving-quotes-1-480x387.jpg 480w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/skydiving-quotes-1-320x258.jpg 320w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/skydiving-quotes-1-160x129.jpg 160w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/skydiving-quotes-1-500x403.jpg 500w, https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/skydiving-quotes-1-124x100.jpg 124w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Skydiving may help you conquer your fear of heights, but you should know that acrophobia definitely won\u2019t dissolve in a day.
