Arachnophobia warning Show more
Glad to help. If there's one thing I feel like most ppl in this community get, it's consideration. Not all CoSoNauts will do it, but many of us try to consider the diversity of our audience.
Cheers 🙂

There was a TikTok creator, Emily, with the handle @mini_robomuppets who made dozens of videos of her own journey to face her arachnophobia. Through the process of getting to know a single jumping spider, which she named Gretel, she eventually overcame her fears & fell in love with spiders.
She has made so many adorable jumping spider videos, and hundreds of comments claim she helped them overcome their phobia. You can see her channel at https://www.tiktok.com/@mini_robomuppets
Some of my favorite vids are these:

@FernLovebond I'll look at them when I feel a bit better, when I have bad bouts of insomnia it's better for me to not look at possible triggering things since it can become nightmares. But I'm interested in checking them out for real !

Of course, as you feel comfortable, not intending to push. Just hoped to offer something approachable *IF* you wanted to. No pressure 🙂
