Exposure

Spider-Man. No superpowers.

Quick psych lesson from a Cambodian market 🕷️

Arachnid → spider
Fear of arachnid → arachnophobia
Arachnophobia → conditioned fear response
Exposure → approach, not avoidance
Habituation → physiological arousal decreases with repeated exposure
Result → friends with Tyrone the Tarantula

Apply this framework to something you’re not too comfy with. Spiders. Public speaking. Heights. Reverse parallel parking.
