    Nobody likes having a sharp, long thing thrust into their body and squirting or taking away something from inside their veins. You're perfectly normal. I had a blood test the other day and fainted as I got up to leave haha :')

    I don't understand this. No one loves needles but when you have to take a shot, just do it.

    It's very common, so in a sense it's normal. It's a horrible phobia to have though, since we all have to get injections at one point or another. Most people don't like needles though, it's understandable.

    When I was a kid, had no problem getting shots or having my blood drawn, but in recent years it's changed. I can't have shots without crying or get blood drawn. Last week, I got in this "health crisis" and I told my doctor that I couldn't do it. I went to the blood place and had I panic attack. I couldn't do It it, but then I had come back the next day because my doctor had threaten to put me in the hospital! So, I took two Xanax, listened to music and wore a blindfold. It hurt like hell and I was shaken when the woman was done, but I managed to do it. Perhaps, you could try the same?

    Good Luck.

    Stop being a pussy.

    The best way to get over it would be by not looking at them while you're being shot or whatever.
