Fear Journal

When I was younger, I wasn't really scared of anything. The only things I was really scared of was spiders and being alone. Until this day on, I'm still scared of spiders and being alone. Being alone at night though. But when I was about the age of 7, I had a big scare with one spider. My friend and I were back behind her house, looking under a truck topper. I was a little unsure about crawling under the topper with her but she assured me everything would be fine. As soon as we kneeled to the ground, I looked down at my leg, only to see the biggest spider crawling up my leg. I stood up as fast as I could and started screaming and shaking my leg to get it off of me. Now as I remember it it looked as if I was doing some type of crazy dance. But ever since that day, i've been deathly afraid of spiders.
