To my parents relief I have overcame my fear of spiders !!!! Even the Huntsman Spiders !!! With out seeking professional help like some people out there do or facing my fears . All it took for me was self reassurance or self positive therapy shall I say , steps such as : I ask my self why I am scared ? what is causing the fear ? Then I start further questioning myself why am I scared of a creature with 8 legs ! But not 6 legs? . I then mapped out a positive point of view that spiders are just a creature with 2 more extra legs than a 6 legged creature. And just kept that in mind . These self therapy takes practise ! its not something you just wake up the next day and the fear is gone . As counselling and helping people with life emotional crisis was always in my field of what Im good at . As I was thinking thoroughly I just saw myself stepping into the client s shoes and Thats when myself questions came up . I felt like I was my own client the fact that I wasnt talking to myself it was a thinking process . Spiders was the only thing I really feared , snakes , bugs , bees , wasps , insects etc dont scare me ! But red back spiders or deadly spiders that are dangerous to humans I would be aware but not scared . My point of this status is that you can overcome your fears it take will power, thinking it through calmly and determination . I had 22 years of my life fearing of spiders till now .
