I am absolutely terrified of spiders and it's pretty embarrassing and actually effects my life quite drastically. It's not just the ridiculously big ones either. It's all of them. I couldn't tell you what it is about them that scares me. I'm well aware they wont hurt me and if I approach one it's bound to leg it away from me. I just dislike everything about them, how fast they scuttle away and just how freaky they look.
Well recently I've been getting really angry at myself for being like this. My fear of them is so bad that when I see one I tend to hyperventilate or worse throw up from the fear and frankly I could do without.
Last night when I got lucid I decided to try and solve my problem. I was walking down an abandoned street. I yelled out "Why am I scared of spiders?" Suddenly people appeared from no where. They were all running around screaming or crying and the more I asked the question the more would appear. I felt like I had failed so I woke myself up. Thinking about it now maybe I should have grabbed one of these people and asked them why I was so scared. Anyway next time I get lucid I'm gonna continue to figure out why they bother me so badly and hopefully I will be able to work with my subconscious and figure out how I can combat this fear.
