Most insects aren't bugs. But most people recognise bug as a general term including most terrestrial vertebrates. Are you happy now genius.
This is an assassin bug that covers itself in its dead prey as a bizarre form of camoflage.

Jesus, I didn't know weevils got that big
I tend to love docile bugs that other people are scared shitless of. Toss up between euro hornet, house centipede, and huntsman spider
i wish i didnt have a phobia of insects, it would make it so when i encountered one i could be influenced by interest rather than fear

You could try systematic desensitisation. Ease yourself into it and work your way up what you find distressing. Like, if you feel comfortable looking at a picture of insects, try something like looking at them in person, and then after that holding one. Usually helps to suppress the fear, displacing the distress with relaxation as a conditioned response.
