This was so me. I hate being on the recieving end of needles. I know its because my pediatric nurse was the worst and she was so mean. She scarred me for life. The irony is in the military, I was the Educational Petty Officer for my Corpsman class and I was squad leader for my Marine Corps FMF training group. I trained everyone to do IVs, give vaccines, draw blood etc and had to tutor everyone EMT medicine, minor lab tech stuff etc LOL But when it came to having to let someone give me an IV or stick me, I forged the documents I did mine already, I even wore a band-aide. I also forged my small pox paper work. I never got small pox. That was mando in the military. In my class all the petty officers were fired from their jobs because they couldnt keep their shit together. So for two months we had no lead petty officers. Only myself and my boyfriend at the time got to keep our leadership roles. Even in our class pic onlu myself and Bret have our EPO badges on. They only let him keep his role because I told them I cant manage all these people and they wont get the individual attention they deserve. I use to faint getting shots or IVs in the hospital. Its died down some but I still pass out. I know it is all because of how mean my peadiatric nurse was growing up, shed hold me down or grab me so hard. My mom didnt even say anything to her shed just tell me to calm down. I was acctually expentional and went above and beyond training my classmates. I pissed excellence in the operating room also. But deep down I have bad needle anxiety. I mean bad. I can dish it out but I cant take it.
