Psiders

Ok, I’m a little dyslexic but when I wrote it like that it didn’t scare me as much (I couldn't even put a picture of a spider, hence spidy man). I have a ridiculous fear of spiders. I know it is ridiculous because I am pretty sure they can’t kill me, but they just freak me out to no end. As soon as I see one I get the feeling that they are crawling all over…now I feel nauseous. I must stop giving you the gory details of them. This morning I had a huge problem. There was one hibernating on the phone in the studio. So all morning I had to look at this freaky white spider and for all I know, he could have been staring back at me planning my demise, you don’t know. It was kind of comforting to know that he was there and hadn’t move to my hair. But it was also killing me to have to stare at him all morning to make sure he didn’t flee.
How do I get over this wicked fear for creepy crawly insects? As proved this morning, I tried to confront my fear by sitting 3 feet from one all morning, but that didn’t help and I’m not getting any closer till I’m over this fear. So what else ya got? I am tempted to do hypnotherapy. Would that help?
Anything help would be appreciated, please!

Thank you in advance!
