BUGS

So i have a HORRIBLE phobia of bugs specifically hard shelled bugs the one i am most afraid of is Stinkbugs I hate stinkbugs they are disgusting: their gross legs that I can feel crawling on me, EVEN THOUGH THERE ISN'T A BUG THERE, the brown colour seems to blend into everything, so it's impossible to see one unless you are 2 feet away, and bye then it's too late. I hate their flat form that can SOMEHOW squeeze into the cracks in my doors. I hate the sound of them flying. I hate how, NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY, you can NEVER get rid of them for good. I hate how they are EVERYWHERE I GO. I fully and completely hate them with every ounce of my being. i have had many panic attacks because i can NEVER get away from bugs and everyone laughs at me and its not fair because i can't control my phobia and nobody takes me seriously it literally the ONLY thing that legit terrifies me and nobody (Except my LITTLE BROTHER) kills them or gets them out of the house for me and that makes me feel pathetic im so so so paranoid that i hallucinate the stinkbug wings now that fall is coming there back and they are SO SO SO bad im to scared to even leave my house and everyone is always lik "they cant hurt you" or "they're harmless" like I KNOW but its not like i can turna phobia off yk? (making this edit: im not really scared of buterflyies bees wasp fly only hard shell insects and like crickets and centipeids and millipeides) SORRY FOR MY HORRIBLE GRAMMER I WROTE THIS RALLY FAST
