attempting to desensitize myself (part one)

satorusinfinityPQC lvl 26 • Sep 23, 2026 @ 3:28pm

context : i have severe entomophobia i get very scared around bugs, i scream, run, sweat, get dizzy, and even cry (if the bug is big enough, i have in fact had a few panic attacks due to this 💔) HOWEVER i have been attempting to educate myself on bugs and what they do for the environment i still dislike / hate bugs, but from a distance (or on a screen) they are KIND OF likeable 😋 and my progress so far: - i dont feel as scared around ladybugs - i get happy when i see a moth or bumblebee - and i dont feel nauseous after seeing spiders (however the spider part i experimented with digitally.. idk if ill be nauseous if i see a spider irl or not) uh yah 😁😁😁 kbai

Keep it PLUR, always and in all ways!

This isn't just a suggestion, it's the very heartbeat of Kandi Pad. We are a community built on the unbreakable foundation of Peace, Love, Unity, and Respect, and that spirit must shine through in every interaction, every post, every connection you make here.

Here's how we live and breathe PLUR on Kandi Pad:

Peace is our intention: We strive to create a calm, positive, and drama-free space. Disagreements should be handled respectfully and constructively, focusing on understanding rather than conflict. Let's be mindful of our words and actions, ensuring they contribute to a harmonious environment.
Love is our connection: We embrace empathy, kindness, and compassion for one another. Celebrate each other's joys, offer support during tough times, and remember that we are all part of the Kandi Pad family. Prejudice, hate speech, and negativity have no place here.
Unity is our strength: We value inclusivity and celebrate the diversity of our members. Regardless of background, beliefs, or interests, we come together through our shared appreciation for the Kandi culture and the spirit of connection. Let's build bridges, not walls, and learn from one another.
Respect is our foundation: We treat everyone with courtesy, consideration, and honor. This includes listening actively, acknowledging different perspectives, and refraining from personal attacks, harassment, or any behavior that diminishes another person's worth. Respect extends to privacy, boundaries, and the creative expressions shared within our community.

Living the PLUR life on Kandi Pad means:
