I have just come back after singing in a concert. All went well apart from me being unable to climb the staging. The conductor was very understanding and allowed me to stand on the floor. I can't sit in the theatre very high up. I get tingling in my fingers and I feel as if I am falling fowards. I would rather pay top price tickets than sit in the gods. I'm the same in the Albert Hall. I just can't do it and feel such a fraud. I've stopped flying because of vertigo I usually have to put my head down and shut my eyes. I know my meds exacerbate the problem as I am on lithium and this afternoon I very nearly needed a valium. I feel sad becuse I know that I could overcome this. I am not sure if I could overcome my fear of heights. The tingling feeling starts and then I begin to fall fowards.
