Yeah I have that fear of falling! When I stand my legs are always bracing a bit, like I don't trust the earth to hold me. Almost never managed to relax that, it feels like I'm going to fall

Hmm I tried that a bit but I just fall. I managed once when high, I was holding onto and 's shoulders. It was super strange, felt like I tried to fall and discovered that my hips were levitating instead
