Sounds like either:

A. You ARE uncounsciously afraid and thus don't jump up enough.
Do you use a spotter? If not then go grab one and let him spot you

B. Your jumping technique might be in need of some more training

Do you lift your arms all the way up when you jump up? Do you bend your knees alot before jumping? Because that's a no-no. Although some people seem to do pretty fine even with it
