Would that make it... worse? Better? Most of the panic comes from seeing the steep drop-off so maybe she really could trick herself into thinking she weren't so high up? But blinding herself intentionally feels insane.
"Someone back home always told me to think about the good parts to fear whenever I started get scared. How it- gives you adrenaline, makes you focus better, shit like that. He said I should try think about how my body is just getting ready to protect me from whatever's coming next."
