How did you get over your fear of spiders ?

I never did get over my fear of spiders! I still freak out when I see one crawling around on my walls! My one friend however, loves spiders. I think she's bonkers. I do try not to kill any spiders though, just leave them be, and capture them and move them in a jar if need be. My grandmother had a very big thing against killing spiders; apparently it's extremely bad luck? Like, worse then breaking a mirror, bad luck.
