I'm scared to ride a roller coaster what should i do?

Answer 1

Start with baby rides. Also take someone you feel real comfortable with and trust. I'm scared of them as well but I was able to get on this spinning attraction after I cried and didn't get on. I went with my boyfriend and he made me feel real comfortable. Good luck... just ride whatever baby ride there is and you'll get more and more comfortable and then get bored of them and want something more.

Answer 2

I'm going to quote myself on this one, so don't be surprised if you see me posting this elsewhere.

Well, I had that situation once. I was terrified And if you want to have fun with your friends or family, it's okay to skip rides out. But at Cedar Point, when I didn't know that it was okay, I started with the best method there is; the small steps method. Start out with the smallest coaster in the park, and work up. Another thing is to find out why you are afraid. If it is because of the heights, do not worry. You are strapped into a vehicle that is checked daily, and you never will fall out. If it is because of speed, just have fun with it. And if it is because of loops and inversions, ignore your fear. A loop feels like you are traveling straight, while in reality you are not. Corkscrews feel like turns. Roller Coasters are meant to be fun, and if you seriously do not want to go on you, remember again, you do not have to. Hey, you could end up like me being one of the only two not going on Top Thrill Dragster. :) But I still hold my ground. And an ending tip; it's okay to scream, it lets out all of the fear and everything. Don't hold it in, you will feel terrible. Scared when you come on, excited when you come off. At the end of the day, I'm sure you will hate to leave (and will probley feel like you are still on a roller coaster). :)

The best way to get over a fear of anything is to immerse yourself in it. When you realize there's nothing to be scared of - you'll never be afraid of it again. Start out on a small roller coaster. If you like it, (hopefully you will) then great! If not, then that's okay. At lease you can say you genuinely don't enjoy them.

Answer 4

Go with people (friends, family, etc...) that you really trust, are comfortable around, and who are not afraid of riding roller coasters. If you want you can start off with one that is small and go on from there. Also If you really want to ride one, force yourself on one. Once you one it, you may feel anxiety but once you experience it you might go back on again. It never hurts to try right?

Answer 5

Face your fears, go to an amusment park and ride it over and over again. It is the only way to get over the fear. I use to be scarred of them also, but I forced myself to ride, and now I Love them. I am still terrified of the first initial drop but that is part of the excitement now.
