Is it normal to be afraid of butterflies?

Ok so since I was a kid I've always been petrified of butterflies. If I see a butterfly today I will run the other direction screaming. But you know everybody has theirs fears... right?

    Yes everyone has their fears, however when it becomes an obsession is when the problems can start... Why are you fearful of them exactly?

    I saw someone with that same exact fear on TV. They helped the person with immersion therapy. For me being afraid of a butterfly would be like being afraid of a rough collie or a hummingbird or something else that's beautiful. Sorry, I can't relate.

    Just out of curiosity, are you afraid of cockroaches, because they're really disgusting. I basically hate cockroaches, I'd rather see a spider than a roach as long as it isn't a poisonous one.

      Spiders are my friends (in addition to beautiful birds, cats, and certain people). I don't kill them; I simply capture them and throw them outside.
