I cant help much because I dont have a fear of doing anything on my
uni.

Just dont think so much about it, and go for it!

Just keep trying, lots of people have that problem, if you keep doing
it you'll lose fear of it eventually.

I havent done 20 yet, I think my highest is 9-10, and I just go for
it.

Two days ago, I was at a school picnic, and of course I brought my
unicycle, and there where some bleachers, so my friends wanted me to
hop up them, so I start going up, then I reached the top and noticed I
could hop Over and off the top of the bleachers. So I lean over and
jump off, then rode back to the fornt of the bleachers. I didnt really
think about it, I jsut got up there and was like "Hey! I could jump
off" so i did.

Nope, most Ive gotten is a few loose spokes, tighten them up, and
that's it, and I rotate my cranks every now and to keep them tight and
keep the tire to wearout evenly, and land with a rollout on
everything.

Sorry, this kinda got threadjacked lol, but I remember, For about 2
days, I kept getting tensed up while trying to go to rubber from a
pedal grab, but when I was with some friends riding around, having lots
of fun, the tensing I had before I jumped up to rubber, disappeared, so
it I was back doing it like I used to. I'm not sure why for those two
days I would tense up, but keep practicing it, have fun when riding,
and being with friends help cause they will push you to do better and
its funner with friends. Keep at it and you'll be doing fine!

No friends that are interested in it?

Have you tried riding with an iPod, or some type of music playing?
Cause if your pumped while riding you tend to do better and do things
that fear would usally hold back.

Also, how are you trying to jump onto the stuff? rolling? static? SIF?
