how to calm myself down about...?

well, I just went outside and ended up walking straight into a spider web. after freaking out to get the spider and his/her home out of my hair, I ran back inside. now I keep freaking out and rubbing myself to make sure the spider isnt still on me. im so freaked out now... what can I do to calm myself down. am I the only one that does this?

Answers:
No, you're not the only one that does it. I am the same way, and the only way I have found to get rid of the feeling is to take a shower, so that I know for certain that the spider is not on me anymore. And brushing my hair, because the thought of having a spider in my hair is enough to freak me out, too. :)

Other answers:
you should take a bath because I see it on your left shoulder.

Take a shower. It will make you feel clean and rid of Mr Spider!
it's all in your mind:) don't worry abt the spider cos it be dead by now if you turn your body over and over again
deep breathing...relax...sit down...stop itching yourself...change your clothes, that might make you feel better, or you could even take a shower!
There are worse bugs out there then spiders. For example, dirty flies which vomit on anything it lands on, or a earwig, even a silver fish is gross. At least the spiders eats other bugs. If that dont work then take a beather
slow down take a deep breath. those harmless creatures don't want to be around you neither. you probably killed them or maybe there were none on their anyway. Wash your hands and hair go back to the store .
No I do not think you are the only one to freak out over walking into a spiders web. What I would to do try and calm down is take a nice long hot shower. Hope this helps you. Good luck.

We all have things that make us shudder. When something like that happens to me, I wash to make myself feel more sure that all the web is gone. If washing isn't an option, have someone check you over, then count to ten while concentrating on being calm.
NO you are not the only one!! I absolutely HATE spiders, and their little stringy homes! Take a shower, and hopefully that will help!
Hope it wasn't a brown recluse. My buddy has a big old hole in his arm from a recluse bite this spring.

Oh yeah, we were supposed to calm you down! Go shower, change your clothes & wash those clothes in the warmest temp water they can handle.
Use your favorite calming agent.
Do whatever you normally do to chill!
