I know this sounds insensitive but I am telling you with experience that the best way to get over your fear of those bugs is controlled exposure to them. Try going to a pet store and asking to see their "Dubias," they are very small and calm

Or you can try with rolly pollies AKA isopods which are similar but unrelated. Rubber ducky isopods are adorable
