Thank God they are all gathering in one place so a completely preventable disease can kill them all.

    Despite having tattoos and piercings (and being vaxxed) I am pretty open about being afraid of needles with whoever is about to poke me. No countdowns! I'm not gonna flinch. Just fucking put it in me and let's get this over with!

    I'm not, I like to watch and compliment their form if they did a good job. I'm even fine giving them to myself

    But one time it was going slower, and so I laid back because I lost interest. The tech started panicking, thinking I had passed out lol

    I'm not afraid of needles, but I don't like to watch the initial jab. Once it's in, if doesn't hurt and isn't bleeding, it doesn't bother me.

    Due to an ER visit and upcoming surgery, I've had to have several runs of various blood draws, injections, and IV lines recently. I don't love them, but I've managed; I've also been surprised by the range of skill levels on display by the various nurses, phlebotomists, and even doctors. The one who gave me an injection yesterday said it's only a three week course to qualify. (Not sure if that last part was for their facility, for the region, or more widespread.)

    Yeah, I had two bad experiences that I think influence it. One plasma place in college blew out my vein, cause they moved it the fuck around INSIDE ME! Then my Dr's office nurse hit the big nerve in my elbow pit and I got tunnel vision and got nauseous. Second one wasn't nearly as painful as the first, but still scared tf out of me.
