I’m the same, I once opened a book and it had a picture of a tarantula in it and I screamed for about half an hour, and if I dream of them I wake up shaking not wanting to move anywhere. All I can say is just try to face your fear, like go to a zoo and ask to hold a spider, I’m sure you will be fine. & You’ll be proud of yourself afterwards.

Answer #2

I have a really bad phobia of spiders too! I cant stand to even tlk bout them. I’ve tried to overcome the fear but I cant. id get a shoe and get close attempting to kill it but when I start starring at it, I start to cry and I cant do it. I know how you feel but you gotta b like really dedicated to overcome a phobia
