Afraid of Heights

The photo is definitely not me but it looks impressive. I am afraid of heights. To those of us who are afraid of heights, we are sensitive people.

When I am standing high and looking down, I feel the potential energy pull at me, like it wants me to fall. It’s quite a visceral feeling, like your guts are being pulled from inside of you. But the positive for us afraid of height people is we are less likely to die from falling. Plus likely sensitive to other people’s energy too, empaths. I bet most likely a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP).

On the opposite end, I love looking up at magnificent mountains, another HSP trait.
