You could try progressive exposure. For example, if you're afraid of heights, stand on the first step of a ladder until you're comfortable. Then later the second step, etc.
Alternatively, you may find that being acutely suicidal removes a lot of your normal fears. Not recommended, obviously.
- saadalem 7y agoI already tested out the first step . e.g : I can go one per one until it's normal but when it comes to the top, I have this feeling of fear. For the second step, I also tested it even if I had physical injuries from it, I'm always scared when the same moment happens another time..
- downerending 7y agoI'd say keep practicing, regularly. And accept that some fear is perfectly normal--it keeps you alert to dangers. Could also look at NLP, which has some visualization exercises to deal with fear, IIRC.
