I have a nasty habit of trying to keep a foot or atleast a toe on the mat, and it's really pissing off those I practice with in Judo.

find someone who is very talented. Ask the person to use you as a dummy. Let the person throw you around for like 30 mins. Also be sure to learn how to all properly and in end you will not even care if you fall.
best way to overcome fear is to face it.

Learn how to fall correctly. Practice falling off a chair (onto a mat).
If you get comfortable with falling, getting thrown will almost seem natural.

you can do two things with this fear. you could just like others have said and practice falling and getting used to falling and or being thown. that answers ur fear. or this won't really help you're fear but you could use the fear of being thrown as motivation to become a better martial artist and not being thrown. just whatever you do, if you know you're about to be thrown, don't resist and sort of make yourself fall. then you're prepared to get back up.

Practice falling and dropping to the mat. Each time, smack the mat hard with your arms.

Practice falling. A lot. On your back, side, any position that feels uncomfortable to fall on, that's what you need to get used to. Because you never know how you're gonna fall untill you're on the ground, and you need to know what's the safest way to fall, and how to recover quickly and defensively.

You need to practice your ukemi. There's a reason that's the very first thing they teach you, it's going to be the one thing that keeps you from getting hurt when you practice.
