Today, I was convinced to face my fears of rollercoasters by a friend. I'm writing this at the highest point of the ride after being stuck over thirty minutes. FML

Hi OP Here For those wondering, it was the Fury at Carowinds. I've heard rumors of it stopping a lot, but is been really hoping to beat my fear. My state of mind was millions do this, just think to yourself you know it will end so enjoy the ride. Imagine my surprise when the ride stops. No more coasters any time soon. Thanks for the supportive comments.

What goes up must come down. You will off the ride soon enough, just sit tight.

I got stuck on a ride at cedar point for almost an hour. It was one of the harness ones that lock down over your shoulders. I'm 6'4. Sitting tight isn't always easy depending on the roller coaster. I was broken after being squished in that.

The maverick. One of my favorite rides, but it's so uncomfortable! those over the shoulder harness rides hurt me so bad. Especially the floorless ones.

That's terrible. I'd be too terrified to even use my phone if that would happen to me. Rollercoasters and heights aren't really my thing. At least you're not stuck hanging upside down.

You're evidently calm enough to write and didn't say "also I shit my pants" like many people probably would, so you're at least making some progress.

Take a minute...or more...to look at the beautiful world around you in a different view. You don't get chances like this too often.

But you are afraid of roller coasters not heights right?
