I AM TERRIFIED OF REPTILES..MAINLY LIZARDS AND TURTLES..MY FEAR IS SO EXTREME THAT I AM UNABLE TO LOOK AT A PICTURE OF A TURTLE....UNFORTUNATLEY I LIVE IN THE SOUTH AND THE SUMMER MONTHS ARE NEARLY UNBEARABLE FOR ME.I HAVE GONE TO PSYCHOLOGISTS, PSYCHIATRISTS AND EVEN BEEN NO MEDICATION FOR THIS..NOTHING HAS HELPED. I HAVE HAD THIS PHOBIA FOR AS LONG AS I CAN REMEMBER BUT IT SEEMS TO WORSEN EVERY YEAR..I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR FROM SOMEONE WHO HAS THIS SAME PHOBIA....
