Hello! This is a bit off topic but kind of relevant I guess. I'm going to Disney World this Saturday and I am SUPER excited. I'm going with my boyfriend who has never been there before. I love Disney rides (for the most part) because there aren't many big roller coasters, minus a few. I hate roller coasters almost as much as I hate v* (for me it goes hand in hand, I get nervous that I will v* because of a roller coaster). Anyways, my boyfriend has heard a lot about Space Mountain and of course really wants to go on it. I told him I'd go on it too, but I am very nervous about it and scared it will trigger n*. I've never been on that ride there before. I went on Splash Mountain once (the log flume) and I absolutely hated it and had a panic attack the whole ride. I hate big drops. Do you think it's too risky to go on Space Mountain? I know it's in the dark which is good because I would close my eyes anyway, but it makes me nervous because I have literally no clue what to expect. Has anyone been on this ride before? Are there any big drops? If I don't chicken out, should I take something like dramamine before hand? Any advice would be nice

I can totally relate to this! I am going up to Six Flags with my friends on Saturday, and I'm so nervous. I've always loved amusement park rides, but this year, ever since my emetophobia increased pretty drastically, they've started to make me anxious. I went to Disney World when I was little, and it was amazing (I didn't go on Space Mountain, but I went on a lot of other fun rides.) What I'm planning on doing this weekend is reminding myself that rides have never made me n* in the past- I have never gotten motion sickness- so I'll be fine, and if it starts to feel really overwhelming, I can always choose to skip a particularly scary-looking ride and sit on the bench. My friend and I went to a virtual reality exhibit over the summer, and as soon as we put on all the gear, I started to get really anxious and I decided to take it all off and just wait for her while she did it. I did regret it a little, because she said it was really fun, but it's good to know that there's always an option to sit out if you're feeling really uncomfortable (just don't let it keep you from having fun.) I hope you have a great time!

Hi there! I go to Disney annually and I am currently in the process of becoming a cast member. Last year I went on Space Mountain and I got a little nervous, but overall it's okay. Just make sure you don't eat before Space Mountain, it might annoy you a little bit.
