Then, yesterday, I went into the room - thought I saw another centipede - ran to smack it with a shoe (progress!!!) only to find it was a bit of fluff. So much adrenaline. I wasn't wearing my glasses (which doesn't help with bug phobia).K.Linehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15350615302797686048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606088928583067206.post-61541120890611484722016-03-26T12:23:18.777-04:002016-03-26T12:23:18.777-04:00I remember that post you wrote!

I also suffer from entomophobia (in college I called my roommate sobbing after I accidentally let a ladybug into our room with two-story ceilings) and I am SO proud of you for surviving this encounter so rationally. I've managed it a few times, but it's always hit or miss and these days I have "my people" (well, my person/boyfriend) to take care of the bugs.Keilexandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10829409796775187413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606088928583067206.post-45866437418485223432016-03-15T22:57:34.422-04:002016-03-15T22:57:34.422-04:00Good for you!

(Mercifully I have never had to use that shower again.) We never stand up to our fears...

I'm impressed that you were able to tune in to those voices, working a little cognitive behavioural therapy. Take care. Hope the soup was good. . . materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606088928583067206.post-1111357999181730222016-03-15T21:53:50.760-04:002016-03-15T21:53:50.760-04:00I once killed a large (2-3") centipede.
