I used to dream about falling. Mainly at the beginning of my slumber I would feel my belly drop. It pissed me off enough to where I began jumping instead of falling. This still sucked but it was my choice and the gut drop was expected.
That dream went away thereafter.
Not sure how I got to the point where I can control my dream in that way but I did.
I get intrusive thoughts about jumping off / leaping from edges and great heights but it doesn't really bother me, it's just an automatic but odd response.
Does your brain do that too? If you have a fear of heights I can see that combination sucking 😅
I only went once and it was a real epic in every sense. deep drive to the trailhead, ~10 mile hike in, daily thunderstorms, insane climbing. worth a visit for sure.
