Spider Phobia Cure using the Human Givens approach

[TeddyPerv]

I wish i liked them, but my god - they are UGLY! And they run too fast, and they run towards me and no one else! They all go to MY room! I now have lemons and baking powder all over my room as i've heard they hate them. Now that's just one sign that they are sending me nuts. Every day, i am paranoid. It takes me 10x longer than it should to walk through my house because i check every part of it for spiders.

I LOVE SPIDERS ! :D

But I get scared of the poisoned ones tho.

[MsRAIDERSBABY]

One day my boyfriend came over and we where cool and all of a sudden he told me he had a spider in his hand and he throw it at me i almost pp'd my pants and you know what it was it was a piece of grass omg i almost shitted myself too.

[The505Guys]

I get so jealous of people who aren't afraid of spiders. I wish I was like them in that repect :(

[notnotspyro]

hmm sounds like a lot of people here have some nasty phobias, most of what is done here is a butchered version of systematic desensitization and the idea that it can cure a phobia permanently in an hour sounds absurd based on what I have studied in psychology. Human givens approach therapy has no proper evidence behind it and their use of "testimonial evidence" here is anecdotal and only supports the idea that its unsupported pseudoscience. If you want help go for proper behavioral therapy

[AlecStansfieldMusic]

The human givens approach is relatively new and there is a national research program to collect the evidence needed to support our claims. It may sound absurd to you that a phobia can be cured permanently in an hour - but those using these techniques (as well as the many people who have benefitted) have plenty of first hand evidence that this approach is particularly effective. Scientific progress is always made BEFORE the text books get written to support what has become obvious in retrospect.

holy shit i have a phobia of spiders!!!i cant even watch the end of this vid cuz i just freck out when i see one so somebody tell me what happends

[alendihumangivens]

Something about the way human brains work is common to all phobias. Whenever we have a strong EMOTIONAL response (e.g. anxiety, fear) then it becomes very difficult to think normally and clearly. This is why it is almost impossible to beat a phobia by just thinking or talking about it (e.g. "just deal with it", "Get a grip", "pull yourself together" - JUST DON'T WORK). Human givens practitioners, however, are taught how to treat these conditions quickly and effectively.

@wuzzupie regarding your spiderphobia. imagine it in black and white.

Then imagine yourself in a black and white movie. You're watching that movie in a theatre. the person in the movie(the black and white you) handles the spider and plays around with it and is cool with it. Then imagine that brave new you coming into you.

I HAAAAAAATE spiders.

A chemical to kill spiders doesnt even exist :/

[oxfordfromboxford]

My friends think I am a pussy because of my fear of spiders. I freak out if I see one.

[thor7789]

I know 3 things that are 100% true. 1. I will die one day. 2. I have to my taxes. 3. No, book, video, hypnotist or therapy will ever get rid of my fear of this 8 legged freaks. They rule my fuc***g life. I hate them and hate the fact that some people who aren't scared of them, find it silly or funny. Spiders blow.

[nxtplanet]

i know! theres lots of them in the hallway where i work and they think its silly im as scared as i am of them, people dont understand how bad it is, anyone tried hypnosis and does it work?

[thor7789]

:) Thank you.......

[needleninja]

well, hypnotism isnt the only cure. they have classes or sessions where they take a person to expose them to the phobic object or phenomenom. oh and im afraid of insects too, just not butterflies or bees. X3

i karate choped a bee once, and it flew away. rofl

[thor7789]

LMAO.... karate chopped a bee. Thanks for making me smile. :)

[needleninja]

np its my job.:3

[yoohoocan1]

Im scared Of them, I freak out if I see one.

[321ashley321]

me 2!!

[newbroken]

a spider phobia is very easily cured, any phobia can be cured. this is a great option for those of you who really want to get rid of your phobia for either spiders, the dark or heights or whatever.. fantastic video...

[amillionfaces]

augh. WHY DO THEY HAVE TO HAVE SPIDERS ALL OVER THE VIDEO? I had like a sliver of the video exposed so I could see when the spiders went away. I want to learn about people getting over their fear but I don't want to stare at spiders in the process. :(

[brdrew]

I hate spiders!

[pkedbygod]

dido..

[parkering123]

I AM SO SCARED OF SPIDERS

[theohaigy]

I'm petrified of spiders and it runs my life. Everytime I see a mark on the wall, or a line coming out of somewhere, I think it's a spider. When I put shoes on, I have to throw them to the other side of the room. I live in fear of them.

[svtcontour]

I'm not sure if this helps, but just imagine how terrified the spider is of you. Imagine you seeing another life form that was the size of a tall building moving about. Thats what you are to the spider. Spiders actually serve a postive purpose around the house. They keep other insect population down to a minimum.

[supercraz2]

like what a fly i'd rather have a fly then a spider..

[albionangel]

most ppl who have a phobia know this already. it doesn't make a differnce.

[svtcontour]

Hmmm well that would make things difficult. I guess thats why its a phobia and not a regular fear.
