Have been riding 1.5yrs. Not a confident rider at all. Have had a few falls.
Was on my favourite horse tonight who is bomb proof. She stumbled and that was it I lost my nerve. I had to stop and get off as the anxiety took over. I couldn't breath and I could feel my heart pumping.
Do you think really this is the time to say "no more". I dread going incase I have a horse I don't like and end up falling off. The fact that I was on my favourite one and couldn't even cope on her tells me that my riding days are over.
I do feel sad about it but also releaved that I don't have to do it again.
