[Poll] Are you Arachnophobic?

[Teutone]

People with arachnophobia tend to feel uneasy in any area they believe could harbour spiders or that has visible signs of their presence, such as webs. If an arachnophobe sees a spider, they may not enter the general vicinity until they have overcome the panic attack that is often associated with their phobia. Some people scream, cry, have emotional outbursts, experience trouble breathing, sweat and experience increased heart rates when they come in contact with an area near spiders or their webs. In some extreme cases, even a picture, a toy, or a realistic drawing of a spider can trigger intense fear.

Maybe a little, but not enough to not kill a (normal-sized) spider. Snakes are worse, even to the extent that pictures terrify me. I've always wondered if I will die of a heart attack from seeing a tattoo of a cobra.

Somehow snakes or even scorpions dont scare me at all, I find reptiles to be very clean animals.

Im very scared of rats and spiders only

[billErobreren]

No, always left them alone. Ours aren't that frightening for the most part, kinda got their own cute factor about them, in fact.

[Sylvanas]

Yes. There are two things that scares me to death, one of them are spiders!! I don't scream or cry, but I run!! As fast as I can. I can't even kill them.

I like snakes.

[PlattitüdenPaule]

Nope, I like every animal, including spiders and insects.

Don’t mind spiders or even rats/mice, I can’t handles snakes though.

[Rumata]

I had a fear as a child. Now I'm disgusted as I know they can't harm me. Particularly I'm disgusted by big ones with a thick body. I'm almost neutral to thin ones.

Once as a boy I played a rubber ball and when lifting it from the ground I found a small snake under it. The good thing was there were (almost) no poisonous snakes around that village. But the bad thing was the rubber ball got bitten through by the reptile.
