The Absolutely Adorable Thread

[Zazzy]

maybe it would help you get over them if you see a grandaddy longleg. They look like spiders, but they're totally harmless.

When I was a child, thousands of these would gather on the ceiling under the back porch, and when you opened the door, they'd all bob up and down- a sea of bobbing spidery things overhead. It was terrifying.

I know they won't hurt me. It's not a fear of them hurting me. It's a fear of them touching me or being near me. It's irrational. I tried the psychological flooding thing in college by doing a project on spiders, but it made it worse.

Here's a Disco the parakeet video to make up for my chicken behavior- he's so cute it's scary.
