Something scary

Like many other phobia’s, my phobia is that which is almost impossible to get over.
I don’t know when I realized about my phobia fear but what I do know is that it is terrible once I give into the fear. My fear of these heights isn’t much of a problem, its not like I walk on the edge or on the top of building to get home or anything.
I wouldn’t know why or how I acquired this fear of heights; it would seem as though I was born with this phobia right from the start. The first time I can remember noticing I was scared of heights is when I was I don’t know say 10 years old. I got on the roof of a house to fetch a water toy we had been playing with. To be more specific it was foam board used when swimming. So anyways, I got the toy threw it down and when I was about to jump I froze I couldn’t jump, I tried but I always stopped. It felt like I was about to dump from a two story house, you might think liked wow big deal, but trust me for a 10 year old boy with phobia of heights that’s like starring at death right in the eyes.
Ever since then, going up on a roof seems like I’m at least five stories high. Hopefully somehow over after time I can get over this fear since height is an advantage and its always a great experience when one does something to do with outrageous heights
