I want to get rid of my fear of spiders

I hate spiders! Everytime I see one in my house I freeze in fear or just scream. I’ve woke my dad up at 4:00am just for him to kill a spider in my room. Its just the way they move so fast and their legs and the thought of one being anywhere on my body. I even have to sleep with the blanket covering my head because I’m afraid that one might crawl into my ears or mouth, I seen on TV where a spider crawled into a womans ear when she was asleep and layed eggs and they hatched in her head…EWW!!!. Whats the best way to overcome this fear.

desensitization.. (kinda) its like this.. every now and then or every time you have spiders there, try interacting with them little by little.. like everyday, touching it, then the next day holding it for like 3 sec the next day 5 sec, next day 6-7 sec and son on until you finally overcome your fear..

Answer #4

I don’t like spiders either :( They’re so… gross! I’m sorry but I don’t know what to tell you here because I’m pretty much the same way :(

Answer #5

I don’t really like spiders either… I just stay away from them and do stuff to keep them away from my house… like be sure it’s clean and knock down any webs that are around. If I see one in the house, I kill it, if it’s small… if it’s big I have my older brother do it.

Get a grip, it’s a spider. What is it exactly do you fear in this life? Don’t follow that map, Strike out in your own direction and absorb what is revealed to you in this most interestng time !
