Adding two classes with the same name

So in my ItemsController I need both:

use Request;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;

Obviously this doesn't work since they have the same name. How do I go about fixing this? Thanks in advance.

Heres the rest of my ItemsController for the context they're needed.

<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;

 use App\Item;
 // use Request;
 use Illuminate\Http\Request;
 use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
 use App\Http\Requests\ItemRequest;



 class ItemsController extends Controller
 {

 public function __construct()
 {
    $this->middleware('auth', ['except' => ['index', 'show']]);
 }

public function index()
{
    $items = Item::all();
    // $items = Item::latest('created_at')->get();

    return view('items.index', compact('items'));
}

public function show(Item $item)
{
    return view('items.show', compact('item'));
}

public function create()
{
    //Potentially use something like this for charging for ad
    // $cost = str_word_count(desc);

    return view('items.create');
}

public function store(ItemRequest $request)
{
    $input = Request::all();
    Item::create($input);

    return redirect('items');
}

public function addPhoto(Request $request)
{

    // $this->validate($request, [
    //     'photo' => 'require|mimes:jpg,jpeg,png,bmp'
    // ]);

    $file = $request->file('photo');

    $name = time().$file->getClientOriginalName();

    $file->move('public/items_add/photos', $name);

    //needs to change from first() to 'current()'
    $item = Item::first();
    // $item = Item::find($item->id);
    
    //Add $item into function arguments and test with line below (actually try using $id not $item)
    // $item = Item::findOrFail($item);

    $item->photos()->create(['path'=>"public/items_add/photos/{$name}"]);

    return 'Done';
}
}
