Do these both mean I don't want to fall down, or is there a different meaning between them? If there is a different meaning.... why? Thanks.

HI jeez again
Caer can go with several nouns:
caer en la tentación
caer a un pozo
caer en una depresión
caerse: fall into something or somewhere, but you, yourself, or the object itself
El hombre se ha caído.
El hombre ha caído en una depresión.

There seems to be a slight difference in meaning. "Caerse" means to fall over or fall down. "Caer" means to fall.

Ok so "caer" is for the metaphysical act of falling in love etc... but "caerse" is for the actual physical act of falling down etc.. Cool.
