Did you ever overcome a deep fear/phobia?

I am scared of heights. Am now, always have been, and probably always will be. You have to face fears. You control them. Don't let them control you. I go out of my way to face my fear. In the army, I jumped out of airplanes, repelled out of helicopters and walked out on the glass ledge in the Sears Tower, or whatever they call it now, in Chicago. Face and conquer your fear.
