I currently have a moderate fear of spiders and insects. I say moderate because it’s not all of them, and it depends on what kind they are and what they look like. The thing that scares me most about spiders is their eyes, to the point where I can’t even look at their faces for more than a few seconds.

And I sometimes freak out if a bug/spider that I have a fear of gets near me. But I’ve seen people who are always calm around them and even let them crawl around on their hands. I wanna have that level of comfort someday, cause I’m tired of having this fear. So I wanna know, how long would it take to get to that level? Or at the very least, the level of being able to look at spiders without panicking?
