May seem odd advice, but I would suggest to have a controlled experiment on going low. If you accept the fact that it is going to happen sooner or later why not have it happen under a controlled set of circumstances when you have support around in case you need assistance?

Each low can be different but if you have never experienced a low at all - it might help you feel a bit more at ease to get the first one under your belt?
