Phobia Support Group
A phobia (from the Greek "fear"), is a strong, persistent fear of situations, objects, activities, or persons. The main symptom of this disorder is the excessive, unreasonable desire to avoid the feared subject. When the fear is beyond one's control, or if the fear is interfering with daily life, then a diagnosis under one of the anxiety disorders can be made.
i have quite bad phobia of needles (the medical ones). i almost faint every time i have to give blood or even think about it. but the problem is i am in medical school and next year i will have to draw blood from others. does anyone know how to get over this fear?

Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.
You can buy some types IM or insulin syringes at the drugstore
Once you're feeling familiar with them the fear may hopefully dissipate
You can work on this in therapy as well.... xo
