If you are under a lot of stress, it can make other fears worse. So maybe you dealt OK with heights before but your general stress has fed the fear and it is now a big problem. You might be changing your life to cope with your fear. So you do not go into lifts. You do not drive over bridges, etc. This just makes it worse. This is what feeds the fear and keeps it alive.
