How to I get over my fear of certain pictures in my biology textbook?

This is going to sound ridiculous, but I am SERIOUSLY SCARED of snakes and spiders pictures in my textbook. I obviously have to read my textbook because I have a test on some chapters, but there's a page with like five pictures of snakes, I flipped to it once and FREAKED OUT. I threw the book and had chills... I really need help...How to I get over my fear of certain pictures in my biology textbook?
I honestly think it would help you if you would just force yourself to look at it. The more you look at the pictures the less freaked out you will become because you become more desensitized to them. When you start your anxiety level will probably be a 10, but you'll probably find that the longer you look, it'll go down. It'll be uncomfortable at first, but that's what they do with OCD patients that have an outrageous fear of certain things like that and it seems to work.
Tape some paper over the pictures or get some way to cover them without damaging the book, and you should be able to read it without getting freaked out. Works for me, yes I feel the same about some things lol, except I get afraid of the old people in my book liike einstein, he's creepy looking, lol.How to I get over my fear of certain pictures in my biology textbook?
have a friend or family member cover the pictures with a taped down piece of paper .This is temporary and be sure to remove the tape slowly.
Block it out of your mind.How to I get over my fear of certain pictures in my biology textbook?
look at something worse, then then it just doesnt seem as bad looking at it
Just try not to think about it
