Do any of you suffer from Phobia's? I myself suffer from arachnophobia, which is a fear of Spiders and other Arachnids.

If you do suffer from a Phobia, what is it? And what is your reaction when you come into contact with 'it'?

Ever since i moved into this new home, every summer (Apart from last) spiders seemed to roam around my house.
It's that time of year again. About ten minuets ago i went to grab a can of Pepsi. I noticed a spider on the wall.
When this happens, i freeze for about 5 minuets. I take a deep breath and hold it for as long as i can.
When i manage to move again, i cover up my mouth and nose, and i breath like a maniac...Oh yeah, and it feels like it's on me. Is it on me?

The weird thing is though, i have this interest in them as well as being afraid of them. Sometimes i put my self through the horror or looking them up on the web. Reading about the different types of spiders, which is the most dangerous etc, etc. After i read this, i can't get to sleep.

I don't know why i'm afraid of them. I live in Scotland. Sure we get big spiders sometimes, but they are just house ones. I don;t ever recall having a 'traumatic experience' with a spider as a kid, or anything. Suppose it could have happened, though...

anyway, What's your fear?
