    Sounds good.

    I doubt you'd get it for a fear of heights though, I assume they'd only give it to people who's fears constantly effect them like Post Traumatic Stress. I don't know all that much about the human mind but if you stopped fear and a car was coming towards you, you'd problably think "A car's about to hit me, I'd better move or I'll get hurt" where is with fear I assume adrenalin would kick in and you'd jump straight out the way.

    But like I said, I don't know much about it, I'm just assuming :)

    They would of course make it impossible to get except for from perscription. It sounds like what happens when you do drugs.
