What should I do when my family makes fun of me because i have Entomophobia (fear of any insect) everytime i go outside and see
a cicada or ladybug or something like that they said oh stop crying (im crying by just being by them) its just a bug i thought a raised a strong kid (im a girl) and it makes my anxiety worse and just makes me sad and mad that they have the nerve to say that
Tell them to stop being like that and tell them if they were scared of insects would they like it if you were to make fun of them and tell them you can’t control that fear and this is for you try and learn about the insects such as butterfly’s and lady bugs ect, and you will learn how nice they are also ignore them then they will have no interest in bullying you
It depends on who is making fun of you. If your parents are making fun of you, then they aren't very good parents. If your siblings are making fun of you, it's normal, but tell your parents when they make fun of you or tell them to stop.
Also, being afraid of wasps and spiders is common, but being afraid of a ladybug is a little strange in my opinion.
I am not entirely sure what you mean by "responding variable" but I'm going to guess it was the vinegar since it has been used as a perservative for years.
