3. Acrophobia (Fear of Heights)
Acrophobia is an overwhelming fear of heights, leading people to avoid tall buildings, bridges, and even high places like mountains. The fear can cause dizziness, sweating, and panic attacks. To overcome acrophobia, exposure therapy is highly effective.
Gradual desensitization through small steps, such as standing near a balcony or observing heights from a distance, can help build confidence over time.
