I've had broken bones, puncture wounds, kidney stones, I got stabbed by a blade shaped rock that nicked my right kidney, I've cut the heel almost off of my foot, slit my leg open to the bone, shocked bad enough to knock me unconscious, head wounds, back pain, neck pain... The list goes on. I dealt. I'd like to say fairly well.

... But a fever or a blood draw? I cannot fucking function

Blood draw? You mean that tiny needle that they use to take a blood sample?

[–] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I mean the unnatural state of inserting something into my veins! It's not right, it's not natural, and it goes against all rules of God and man.

I deal better if I can get them to agree to draw from the wrist or back of my hands, it hurts more, but it's much more dealable. But when they pull from the inside of the elbow? My brain shuts down and I have to distract myself or I'll hyperventilate. It's panic inducing, and has nothing to do with the pain or physical sensation. Best way I can describe it is if you have arachnophobia, it's not like being in a room with a spider, it's like allowing one to crawl around on your face or the back of your neck and being told to sit there calmly. It's fucking horrible.

I don't like any needles in me, but blood draws are the absolute fucking worst. Fevers give me the same panic feeling, but coupled with full body aches and pain in my joints

Ok so this might sound completely unhinged but have you ever considered before that the fear of being stung by needles might have anything to do with not wanting to be stung by a penis?

[–] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 2 points 4 months ago

I mean, it's possible, I suppose? I've never been stung by a penis. I've taken a lot of dick, but I didn't even know they could sting!
