Interesting, this really reminds me of this.I have severe arachnophobia, right down to hyperventilation and my muscles lock up in worst cases such as direct contact. But most of the time I can compose myself to either run and get someone or squeak out a cry for help. The little spiders don't really bother me that much, but the larger ones I have a hesitation to kill myself because of the noise they make. I squashed a big wood spider one time and it made a crunching noise....Yeah. I threw up all over the place.
When I was younger I was known to sleep in different rooms if there was a spider found in my room and my dad let it get away because it was late and he didn't feel like tearing my room apart to kill it. The found me sleeping on a line of bar stools in our kitchen one morning because they left me home alone over night and I saw a big spider in my room.
In 2006 I was bitten by a Black Widow on my knee while sweeping my parents garage out, I was very surprised at myself on how I handled the situation, I didn't panic when I felt it bite and saw it, I swiped it away and made sure it was dead and saved it so I could show the doctors.
But my most recent encounter was at the Zoo, I was putting together some enrichment boxes for our Macaws and our Harpy Eagle and I was digging some rope out of a box and this ginormous Huntsman came bolting out of the box at me and was centimeters from touching my hand. My coworker said he saw me close my eyes, heard me scream, and said I instantly turned pale and started shaking. Apparently they have been trying to kill this spider for over a month but he keeps escaping.
Other than Spiders, I don't really like Ticks, and I have a fear of Intubation for surgery or in the event of an accident where I am aware of what is going on. I never want to wake up with a tube down my throat, because I will yank it out.
Same.My worst fear is arachnophobia, one look at a spider and I want to get as far away as possible. I have no clue how I got this fear but it gets me in a state of terror and panic instantly.
Did your mouth then go all wobbly?Another fear I have is... Someone walking in wherever I am with a gun and shooting everyone, including me. This became after a dream I had, Kesha had come to our school, and was shooting everyone, she shot me, and I felt like I actually felt my mouth get warm. I don't even... Dear god.
Did your mouth then go all wobbly?
Making you say shit just like "blah, blah, blah"?
I know that feel, bro. However, I'm slowing getting over it. It feels very rewarding when you punch, not just squash, a spider dead. However, bigger spiders = me cowering in the opposite corner of the room, shaking. I'm 20, and close to 250 pounds. I'm a true man.My worst fear is arachnophobia, one look at a spider and I want to get as far away as possible. I have no clue how I got this fear but it gets me in a state of terror and panic instantly.
