Once or twice I have forced myself to deal with heights though. A few summers ago I found myself in Paris and Snowdonia and I forced myself to walk up the steps to the first platform on the Eiffel Tower and to take an unexpectedly tricky route up Snowdon. I nearly fainted when I realised we had to negotiate a ridge. Confronting one's fears does not always help and I'm sure I'm even worse after that experience.
