Idk. We did that but collection thing in cub scouts and I found this dead deaths head moth. Put it in the jar with the alcohol just to be safe, then added it to the collection.

So the next morning I go to check on my dead bugs. Turns out the damn thing wasn't dead, it was asleep in the middle of its molt. Damn thing leapt out of its own skin at 8 year old me. And that fucker, have you seen deaths head moths? They are not small.

Soooo I might be the teensiest bit afraid of nonmeme moths. My heart is racing just typing it at y'all. That kind of thing stays with you. But I hope they are afraid of me too I screamed so pathetically

    Probably it was scared too. I hope you can overcome your fear as moths are harmless, maybe they scare a bit, but still harmless (and facinating but i like insects so its biased). I defeated like 2 fears (spiders & fear of human touch) and may should fight against fear of "balls/things thrown that every single time landed in my face" but that one is harder because of desinterest and that its not an irrational fear. So i very much understand if you keep it because i very much do the same

    Normally at least its worth it to fight the fear as long as there is intrinsic motivation (its the easy mode)
