The Fear of Falling????

Guys,

I'm busy taking my PPL but everytime I have a lesson I just can't relax.

I can't put it down to a 'fear of heights' because standing on top of tall buildings like the Empire State Building doesn't worry me at all, however I was forced to go on The London Eye last week and hated it. I hate high fairground rides too!

It seems as though it's falling that worries me ie when suspended it the air (you couldn't get me to do a parachute jump or in a hot air balloon for love nor money).

Has any one else experience this?

And any thoughts on how to overcome it?

All comments would be gratefully appreciated.
