Acrophobia

Acrophobia — fear of heights

Since when I was a kid I'm afraid of slides, high buildings, rides, and everything that is too high. Everytime that I'm on a place where I'm close to the sky, I become afraid.

This started when I was 5 yrs old, my family went swimming. I'm too naive back then, I just wanted to enjoy the time so I rode the slide without thinking that the water is too deep for me. I thought it will end my life but it didn't because someone saved me. After that incident I didn't go to slides again and I never go to high places.

As time passes by, I became old enough but still I didn't go in high places. I had a relationship that time and I love him so much that I'm willing to do anything for him. Even if I cannot experience nor enjoy the rides, slides, ziplines, I can say that I'm enjoying life because of my other half. Everytime I was with him I feel like I'm in the clouds where I am close to the sky. But then again because of enjoying it so much I didn't realize that there are consequences for being deeply inlove.

Everything colorful became plain. I don't know what happened and I don't know what went wrong. Then the day came where he finally leaves me without any explanation. I felt like I was on the top where I am about to reach the sky but something drastic happened and then I fell. I thought falling in deep water would leave me breathless but I was wrong because falling deeply inlove with the wrong person will.

Then I said to myself "I wasn't afraid of heights, I was afraid of falling —

Bisophobia"
