Anyone having this phobia as I'm - can't stand things in collective like:worms/snakes/ants or even beads oough


Answers:
This is actually quite funny because my friend expressed the same problem.
What is the intensity of the phobia? Is it causing impariment in your life? Are you afraid of the actual images/photographs or real-life represtentations of them?
Are you focusing/thining on it too much to make it worse?Or does your heart race when you see things like that? Do you avoid those types of things?
Things that work:
- graded exposure
- desensitization therapy
- flooding therapy
- incompatible emotion/relaxation training
You need to provide more info to get a clearer answer.
