I have a strong phobia?!


Question:

I have a strong phobia?

I am afraid of snakes and have been through my mid to late teens and all of my adult life. I am no longer afraid to see them on television ( unless they are striking something), I can see them in an aquarium, I can deal with people holding them, I am not afraid of them biting me, and I am not afraid of being poisoned by them, the smaller they are, the scarier they are, I don't know where this fear developed from, but it is interfering with my everyday life, I am afraid to walk in grass, sometimes I am even afraid to walk up to people's front doors. I begin to shake and cry violently whenever I see one out in the wild.

If you have gone through a strong phobia like this and have gotten through it, what are some of the things that you did to get through it?


Answers:

Oh honey, you are as afraid of snakes as my sister is to spiders. :) She freaks out when she sees them. Sounds like you are doing everything you can to over come your phobia. I would suggest you try holding a snake. Or feeding the snake. They are more scared of you, than you should be of them. I know you have probably heard of this time and again. But it is true.
