Yep. I was messed up after the first bite for about 3 months if I remember right. Every little hair on my leg that moved from the fan blowing on it was a spider, in my mind. Haha.Use to have the worst nightmares of spiders, I use to have short "hallucinations" of spiders banding together and every tickle, pinch, or any other feeling while attempting to fall asleep, was a spider getting ready to poison me. I was sort of arachnophobic in a sense that the thought of spiders kept me up all night, mostly because I couldn't see the stealthy little bastards.
Some of my weirdest/scariest dreams were based of spiders. Ones where spiders would climb into my mouth(scariest motherfucking reoccurring dream of my childhood), ones where they would kill my family and my cat (lol?). But yeah I eventually got over that fear of spiders and I don't give a fuck about them. I can sleep through whatever the hell I want now.
Lucky fucker.Hurhurr, you don't know how insanely happy I am for living in Norway
Almost no spiders, none of them are venomous.
Jelly anyone?

One morning, at about 2 AM, my girlfriend was in bed, shaking around like there was a bug in the bed. She then, goes "Ahh!" and brushed something off of her and onto my back. I was immediately bitten. We turn on the light to find that it was a black widow:
One of these fuckers:
Well, fearing the worst after reading all of the side effects, she drives me to the ER here in Town. On the way, the left side of my body was twitching. The venom from Black Widows messes with your nervous system.
So, I get to the ER, fill out a bunch of paperwork then go back to see the Doctor. After he looks at my bite, he tells me "I'll tell you right now, you weren't bit by a Black Widow." I replied, "Yes, I was. I have the damn thing in a Ziplock back in the ER with my girlfriend." So, he circled the swelling with a permanent marker and told me that if it swelled any larger to come back ASAP. The Doctor sent me home and told me to take Benadryl.
I was sick for about 1 week, but I didn't throw up. I just didn't feel "right," but all ended well, obviously.
Earlier this year, I was on TeamSpeak 3 with Herocrafters and I was bitten, again, in the neck by one, but I'm guessing that with the amount of liquor I had in my blood that night, I ended up okay. I just ate some pizza and passed out. I woke up fine. Haha.
We have a bunch of these around our house. They're more scary looking than they actually are dangerous, but when I see them in real life, they give me the fuckin chills......
DAMN am I lucky to be in England!!!
The worst we get are house spiders. They are not very big, just some small things with reasonably thick legs.
Oohh..
I have itching in my back now....
ARRTGGHGHGHGHGHGH... Damn you!

We only got house spiders in Norway too, but not many. I've killed most of them
