Answers:
I found these on a site for you!. :-) Hope they help!.

1!. Keep clear of places where spiders are likely to be prominent!. This would include crawl spaces and wooded areas!. This is by no means a permanent solution or lifestyle change!. This is only advisable while working to get the phobia itself under control!.

2!. Chart memories or imagined scenarios involving spiders in a journal!. Rank these scenarios from least to most frightening!. Try to conquer each imagined scenario on the list!. Beginning with the easiest heightens chances of success!.

3!. Learn what you can about spiders!. Perhaps for some people, knowing how to tell dangerous spiders from non-threatening spiders can replenish a sense of control the person with arachnophobia has been robbed of!.

4!. Consider talking to a professional about behavioral therapy!. Most commonly used is the aversion method, where the patient is presented with the object that causes irrational fear (in this case a spider)!. The patient is taught to confront the fear and gradually works toward the object until the fear is eradicated!.

5!. Ask your doctor about the various anxiety medications most recommended for people suffering from phobias!. See which one, if any, would be right for you!.

6!. (my own advice) DON'T see the movie Arachnophobia!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I have arachnaphobia too!. However, I've noticed the older I get, the better it gets!. I used to freeze up and let the spider get away, but now I can actually kill a spider!. lol!
I know you don't want to, but the more you look at spiders, the easier it will be when they come around!. Unfortunately, they are around and always will be!.!.!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

In the words of the infamous Archie Bunker; "STOP THAT!"

Spiders are wonderful animals - I often keep them as pets (and yes, I have conventional pets - dog and cat - too)!.

While most spiders _could_ bite you, 99!.999% of them won't unless you press them up against thin skin and they can manage to get some of that skin in between their jaws!. You are much more likely to be bitten by your neighbor's puppy than you are to be bitten by a spider!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

well, if i were you, i'd try and learn things about spiders!. like their life styles and everything!. and try to understanding!. and then when you see one just look at it!. but your case is really bad go see a doctor lol!.
