Re: Fear of the sky
I used to have this phobia too. It all started after I took a bad panic attack on the plane and all I could see was the sky, after that even just looking up at the sky would send me into a panic. I felt like the world was empty and the sky was going to cave in on it while I looked up at it. I found it difficult for a while as I am into astronomy and go star gazing a lot and that obviously involves looking up at the sky. I was at my worst about a year and a half ago and its pretty much gone now. I can't really remember how I got over it.
