Anyone know any ways to get over fears fast?

I think thinner heels look better than my usual block heels, but the decrease in stability paired with my stupid phobia or whatever of dislocating my patella again makes me a twitchy mess just thinking about the possibility of stumbling.

Since the fear isn't all that unfounded, I can't force myself to stumble until it no longer registers as a threat... But I really feel like I'm wasting potential here.

I advice you to get a big (40 cm thick) mattress and then just make yourself stumble and fall over and over (if it's safe for your health). You could find huge ones of these at a gymnastic training area.

@MartinTheFirst oh god nope. Nope nope nope nope nope. I'd rather die. I'd probably twist me kneecap straight to the other side of my leg in less than 10 min fuck that noise.

@NorthernRoses one day you will say "let's do it, and let's do it hard", but only after you've suffered enough.
