I No that alot of people lose there confidence easily, in a matter of fact i use to lose my confidence nearly every time i rode, due to the fact my pony chucked me off all the time and was very spooky! Now i have sorted his bucking, rearing and refusing jumps out (although he bucks and refuses jumps 'occasionly') i now dont lose my confidence and get on any horse . Last week I rode a 16.2hh Ex-Race Throughbred what went perfectly eithen though it was about 2 times to big for me! Then I got on a 14.2hh pony. I had rode him alot of times before and he was sound so i thought he would be sound again, but NO he just bolted around the school (he crashed into a 16.2hh horse) when i was on him and he wouldn't stop, he rammed into fences and jumped over poles, luckily i managed to stay on! When he stopped I got off. But it was fun i have to say and i would do it again. I didnt lose my confidence though. So if any of you have any stories or tips to share then go ahead and share them!
