How do i overcome my petrified fear of bees/wasps/hornets/ect?

Well I guess your fear is legit since you are allergic. From my experience, if you leave them alone, they will not bother you, unless you are wearing bright clothing then they might buzz around you a little thinking you are a flower of some sort. I have never once been stung by a bee or a wasp, yet I have never swatted at one or gone out of my way to avoid them. The best way to overcome these fears is to expose yourself to what you are fearful of. If you are not afraid of the reaction that results from a sting (a deadly reaction is not worth the risk!), then go hang out under a tree or a bush that is flowering and wear a neutral colored shirt. You'll learn that they have no real interest in harming you. Just stay still if one comes near you and bring a friend if that will help you. Good luck and be brave!
