I tried doing this Paul Mckenna hypnosis thingy which you watch online and do 3 steps. It's supposed to help cure phobias. Mum had told me about it and i thought it was worth giving it a go!
I had arachnophobia, and no, it wasn't just some little fear where I'm a bit scared of spiders, I was absolutely terrified!
I couldn't look at pictures of them without feeling sick, if there's one in the same room as me, I leave the room and stand on something above floor level, lol, I'd even run away from a plastic one (while knowing very well that it IS plastic)!
Soooo.... I've been doing it for almost a week now.
I've been looking for a spider since I started the thing, but couldn't find any ANYWHERE! they'd all disapeared, lol. but yesterday I saw a big one, and i felt completely normal! It was hanging in this small room. and I got as close as I could to it!!! I put my hand so near! and I felt completely normal! :|
I was so excited I phoned my mum to tell her! LMFAO.
I went back to it later to get a picture taken, as evidence for myself that I actually did it!
here's the pics... The first one looks further away than I was, the second looks too close :S and the spider was bigger than it looks, lmao!
I'm so proud of myself, normally I'd have been out of that room and down the stairs in a split second!!
