Answer 1

This sounds like a question better suited to the social science's psychology section.  If it helps you feel better, spiders rank #4 on the list of things that Americans fear...your feelings are shared by many people.

As for your mom...well, her insensitivity is inexcusable.  The brown recluse is nothing to  joke about....they are a really nasty breed of spider.

Answer 2

I have found that by 10 minutes a day of quiet sitting, doing a sort of meditation, I have become a lot calmer around spiders. This was an unexpected side-effect of the meditation time, but I have been a lot more rational around even my scariest spiders.

Answer 3

Many people find spiders repulsive and scary, yet the majority of spiders are harmless and beneficial.

Only four kinds of spiders are known to cause health problems in the U.S.

Answer 5

I'd spray your whole house with Raid Maxx. It will kill anything that crawls, and do it for 6 weeks, but make sure you are not in your home and let it air. It's powerfull

Answer 6

You are going to live with spiders the rest of your life.  Its time you got control of yourself.  Get a book on spiders are read all about them.  Make sure it has plenty of pictures.  When you can look at the pictures without flinching it is time to catch and release all the spiders you find in your house.

Answer 7

If you have a serious phobia you will need a little psychological help.  If you live in America, you must remember that there are only a couple spider species that can be harmful, all the rest are harmless.  

Your mother maybe wrong.  Lots of people incorrectly identify the brown recluse.  Do you live in the south?

Edit: The brown recluse is not a breed, it is a specie.
