Crippling Fear
Post Body

Hey guys. I hate that I’m even posting this, but I need to tell someone that understands, as no one in my life ever has. I’m 24, and for my entire life have had a crippling fear of spiders that has only gotten worse. I moved into a duplex around 5 months ago, and recently it has developed a wolf spider infestation INSIDE. I see at least one every day. (If you don’t know what a wolf spider is.. it’s those huge ones THAT HAVE BABIES ALL OVER THEIR BACKS. Anyway.. my fear has gotten so bad.. the other night I was going to take my dog outside, but I saw one on my door step and literally couldn’t bring myself to go outside and just let him poop in the house ): I know that’s disgusting, but I couldn’t bring myself to get anywhere near it. I will start profusely sweating, crying, screaming if I see it start walking. I don’t know what to do anymore, it’s beginning to run my life. I saw one in the hallway at 4am today on my way for a snack and ended up staring at it for over an hour to make sure it didn’t move until my roommate could wake up and kill it ): has anyone tried therapy for their phobia? I don’t know what to do anymore…
