How can I get used to my 5 stories up patio?

Post Reply New Topic

I guess I am a little afraid of heights so it makes me a little afraid to go out onto my new patio. But I want to put some plants out there...I just am not sure how to get over the fear. I guess even if somehow my patio collapsed it would have to fall through four others to get to the ground, so if mine collapsed I'd just fall on the next one, not nessisarily plummet to my death. So that makes me feel a bit bettter, but even though it is not reasonable I am so worried it will collapse. Idk I figure I just have to keep going out there till I feel more comfortable on it, I have juust never lived that high up before so maybe it will juust take a bit to get used to. But yeah at the moment it kind of makes me nervous to go out there cause I am afraid to look down.

But I want to grow a tomato out there, so I will at least have to go out to water it.

I get a similar feeling when I have a bath because I'm in an upstairs flat and I always imagine falling right through the floor into downstairs bathroom
I can see it playing out in my head

I'm wondering if you could push the plants out onto the patio with a broom or something

Apart from that Idk unless you just pushed past your fear

Perhaps having your boyfriend out there with you while taking care of the plants would distract you

Spend time on it.
