Phobias

[xKuroiTaimax]

I am seriously scared of spiders.

Lots of people SAY they have a phobia but this as extreme and irrational a fear as it gets. It's not bugs in general or toy spiders, if it is a spider, regardless of the size I am frozen with fear, crying, shaking, whimpering, or trying to scramble away. I can't breathe, I feel dizzy, all my hairs stand on end and you CANNOT tell me to 'just ignore it, it's only a spider'.

It's not because I think they're 'gross' or something, it's a completely knee jerk reaction. I work on farms and stables, I'm used to dust and rats, bats, lizards, snakes, toads, giant african snails and such- it is just spiders that set off my panic button. THE worst form of torture you could EVER put me through would be tying me up and dangling a spider on front of my face or on my skin.

Vertigo and claustrophobia are pretty normal human instinctual fears, but mine is pretty redundant comsidering no spider around here in the last few millennia could do me much harm. I feel sorry for that woman on the documemtary with a fear of buttons...

I can see being afraid of spiders all those legs and eyes, but i have always saved them, mostly all bugs i have gone out of my way to NOT kill.

its not the legs and shit,they can really fuck you up with poison.I know someone who had to get her guts vacumed out her stomach everyday from a little spider bite

wait a minute, ... you know an IV drug user who got "bit by a spider"?

that's not a spider bite.

 

[dLoc07]

I think he meant she didn't care that he was watching because the hospital was keeping her hopped up on pain killers... Understand now FDD?

I live in New Mexico. Everything here bites or stings or pinches. This is what we have running around.

Bark Scorpion:

Giant Desert Centipede (my personal phobia):

Sun Spider (I had one of these riding on my shoulder the other night):

Whip Scorpion:

Child-of-the-Earth (Jerusalem Cricket):

Gila Monster:

These are just a few examples.

 

[Perfextionist420]

I have a phobia of needles and old porcelain dolls. I want to smash all those fucking dolls and get those needles the fuck away from me

well since it was you who cleared it up, no.


i know many an IV drug user who got "bit by a spider". it's called "missing the vein" and it will fuck your day up something bad.

 

[fdd2blk]

and to hell with the Gila monster, those things are pure evil. there is no place in this world for poisonous lizards.

Spiders, open water, fish. The concept of swiming amongst fish terrifies me, they're all spikey as fuck, they all grow pretty big in the ocean, and well, yeah, in the ocean every fish is a shark so fuckkkk thattttttt. I rememeber the family driving up route 101 i think it was and finding a nice beach. Might have been something to do with a famous explorer, was about 15 years ago, but at the beach there were two signs, one saying something along the lines of AHHHHHHHHHHHH RIP CURRENT AHHHHHH and the other stating that the most recent shark sighint had been a few days previous. I also recall there being some extreme shark sightings the day after my first swim at la jola cove.

Fuck sharks!

At least they're slow as shit. You would have to practically stand on one to get bitten.

 

[DSB65]

YOUR AFRAID OF A LITTLE SPIDER...

 

[fdd2blk]

or be sleeping.

 

[bb419]

Neighbors, noisy, loud, rude and obnoxious, its hard to sleep a wall away from a stranger..

 

[tip top toker]

Oh, and a phobia is an irrational fear

that's not a spider bite.

when she got bit they gave her antivenom through an iv so she decided it was a good idea to shoot heroin through it.
i think the vacum was for sucking poison out

Sounds like she may have more serious health issues than a spider bite.
