What I did:
1st - Think about what you are scared of. Cedar Point is a world renowned coaster park. It is VERY attentive and SAFE. Thousands upon thousands of people are doing EVERY DAY what you are about to do once. Get yourself in the mental state that if all these thousands of people are walking away happy and unharmed, then you can too!
2nd - When you think about the first hill, take time to realize that it's the "looking down" part that bothers you. Are you scared when you accelerate really fast in your CAR? Probably not. Remember that you are doing the same thing here, but at a different angle.
3rd - Force yourself on the biggest baddest one FIRST. After that, you'll gladly do them all and enjoy yourself without worrying what the big one is gonna be like later. You will have already conquered it.
Then .... it'll be all downhill from there! |

u wont get rid of the fear till u ride one... trust me its more frightening to watch one in action, compared to riding it. cuz the whole thing becomes surreal.. and once u get off u might still be a little freaked, but its a total adrenaline rush...in a good way=) |

im afraid of roller coasters too dude. you have to start on smaller rides and go up from there.... |

Life is funny like that

All you have to worry about is getting INTO the car. Once you're in-- you're locked in!
Just tell yourself its a normal ride. It's not like you're going to die. I had a friend once who was terrified. We waited in line, not talking about the ride. She got into the car, and I showed her how she was NOT going to fall out or anything because of all of the restraints, then she experienced the ride, and when it stopped said "Can we do that again?" It is a total rush-- soooo much fun!!!
Don't worry- just do!
Have fun!!! |

Seriously, go on the smallest on there, and work your way up.
That's how I did it, except the smallest one I ended up going on happened to be big but right after, I was hooked!
Give it a shot, your secured in the roller coaster, they check everything, nothing will happen PROMISE!
Enjoy yourself! |

I just love Sam!

Honestly, you just need to get out there and do it!
I used to have the fear of that too and i'm here 4 u. Just get out there and ride it you'll have no trouble. Just as your getting on the rollercoaster/waiting in line close your eyes or talk to people. It's honestly a very fun experience and I'm so glad I got over the fear. Heck, my favorite ride today is the Iron Dragon and the Maverick and Snake River Falls and The Jemini. Those aren't too extreme. However, the demon drop scared the crap out of me! Anyway I hope this helped cause It's all I got 4 ya. Good Luck. Try to answer my question click on my pic. It's the first one. Remember, It's safe and fear is just an illusion. It's safe I promise! |

Roller coasters are fun for some and not for others. If you really want to get over the fear, just start small and work your way up to the big ones. |

Be realistic about your fears and identify what you're really afraid of. If it's getting hurt or killed for example, are you likely going to be killed on a rollercoaster? No. When you put it in that perspective, it's unlikely. Obviously if you're pregnant, have heart problems or have epilepsy you should not go on a rollercoaster and if you do have one of the latter that's the only way you will probably be hurt from it. |

Go on one of the slower and or smaller rollercoasters first and work your way up. If you are going to WDW try the little kids rollercoaster, the Barnstormer. That rollercoaster is small and sort of fun. You will not look stupid. Trust me! |

Work your way up. Start on the least scary looking one and move up from there. Hope this helps! |

My best advice, is to go with someone who will make you comfortable. Who isn't going to tease you or push you into riding something. That can make it a whole lot worse. Also, bring someone whole won't mind you latching onto your arm when you ride. You'll want to start with the smaller coasters first. Something that doesn't go upside down, few corkscrews, and smaller hills. And most importantly... scream! You have no idea how great you will feel if you just let it out. One more tip, most coasters take pictures of you at the top of the hill. Look at yours when you get off of the ride. If you want, buy it. Then you can look at it every time you get scared. You can say, this is what a brave person looks like.
Go on Ceder Point's website. It should give a description of what the coasters will be like. If there are any loops and stuff like that. I did that when I went to Kings Island. It looks like most of the coasters on the site are a rating of 4 or 5. Go with the ones that are a rating of 4.
Have fun! Tell me how you like it. I live in Ohio and I haven't been there yet. |

take baby steps. start off with small ones, then go on small ones with a kind of drop where u get butterflys, then go on a small ride that goes up-side down.
then you will be a lean mean roller coater machine =] |
