@No_Mercy idk hun my cousin did this xox
@No_Mercy but she seemed alright
If you're a child, they use a butterfly needle (they call it that because of the blue small wings) and that needle is pretty small
I have major head issues, so I have to get a blood test. The blood test would determine if I have an issue with me that could actually kill me. (Meningitis) but I’ve always been afraid of needles, yesterday I went into the ER, and they took blood and did a IV. I have had 3 different needle pricks this month, yet I’m still terrified. However, I’m still gonna man up and go. I want to live.
I’m already crying and my blood test is on Saturday. I’m so scared of needles I will cry. And I might have iron deficiency so they need to take my blood to test and I’m really scared for it.

There’s no pain at all. Fear is what makes you expect the worse but all you feel is that the needle is in your arm and you are aware but nothing hurts whatsoever. Hope you all find this will help you feel more comfortable :)
Yea a lil
Thanks
It is not about the pain as I did kickboxing. It's just the thought that something goes inside your vain and sucks your blood😆

Excuse me-? When I had a blood test, I had 6 big vials taken, prior to this one, I had severe trauma with blood tests and the woman who did the test to me didn’t even care to listen to my worries and added to the trauma by not even taking a break between the vials and doing it non stop!!!, I felt like I was going to vomit, a feeling of hopelessness went over me and all she said was “you are fine” and gave me a vomit bag!!! I read about it and it’s only legal to take 3-5 vials at a time (the big ones) I almost fainted and she didn’t even care. No one even bothered to explain to me why there were more vials than promised as my parents said only 2-3 would be taken!!!! I had trauma prior where I was held down and forcefully had my blood taken when I was younger around 4 times!, I would have complied if people told me what was happening (I was 8 and didn’t know what a blood test was)
Yes there is pain, I’ve had it done once and I have to get it done again and I’m terrified.
I’m having a blood test later. Anyone else?

I watched this right before I got my blood drawn and I was super nervous and it felt like the smallest pinch ever pain was 1/10 and I was shookkl
Mini pinches hurt the most tho🧐

Tomorrow will be my test

Literally just looked up “how to mentally prepare for a blood test” and this came up. Thx for the tips
for me it feels so BAD. for me the pain has gotta be at least a 6/10, but that's only because i amplify the fear up so much in my mind that my body is expecting it to be really painful.
You're not the only one
For me the little little pain is sooo stressing, because is is about BLOOD and I CAN FEEL IT 😭
I feel very nervous at needles and seeing blood makes me faint. taking shots is fine by me but I will have my first time blood test and I feel very nervous

Update: all done, was very very fast I was only sat in the waiting room for like two minutes and the actual blood test took less than three to get in and out of the room! Ended up playing ludo and listening to music, made sure to lie down and not look at the needle. Least scary thing I've done probably ever which is crazy.
I’m in the waiting room now 😔😢

When I say I was terrified of having a blood test, I got to the point where I couldn't sleep because I was so worried when I was younger knowing that I had to have one because I'm a carrier of Haemophilia so need to know how well my blood clots and whatnot. A month ago I had my first blood test and the nurse I had was fantastic. I was really scared because I didn't know what to expect (how you picture it in your mind is usually a lot worse) but I let the nurse know and she calmed me down and it was done in about a minute with no pain! You can only feel the needle a bit when they change the tubes. Don't watch the needle go in if you are squeamish and I've found that if they ask if you want them to tell you when they are putting the needle in, politely ask them just to do it when they are ready because you might tense up and it may start to hurt. My Second Time was today as a follow up (I had 4 vials taken). I've gotten to the point where I am relaxed when I have it done which is a place I'd never thought I'd be in. My best piece of advice would be to play music through some headphones and look away to distract yourself, take some deep breaths and try to control your breathing and eat and drink something before. When it is done, you will feel so proud of yourself. You will get plenty of people telling you not to worry and to stop overreacting but you always think it sounds horrible in your head before you have it done and nothing anyone says can change that because that was exactly what I was like. Once you have it done only then will be able to know what it's like. You can do this! :)
Hi Freya, thank you for taking the time to share your personal experience. Having you share your experience will certainly be very helpful for other viewers experiencing the same anxiety. 💚 ^BB
I got my first blood draw done about 2 1/2 weeks ago and it wasn't bad at all. It doesn't hurt at all. Quick bit of advice drink water before hand. Usually the person doing the draw is really nice and very understanding. Trust me it's not that bad.
I’ve had them since I was young, and it’s not the pain for me. I don’t know why, but I panic as soon as they call my name to enter the lab.
I’m at the lab right now trying to calm myself down because inside I’m freaking out
@NoMxrcy ^^
I had blood work yesterday. I had yelled at her to take it down. Lost my vision. Ears started ringing. Then I threw up. Love that for myself
I am so sorry that happened to you. These people don’t know what they are doing and obviously need more training in order to work with needles.

For me its just not the needles and the blood, my actual fear is the needle going in my arm. That’s what scares me the most, i get nausea just imagining it. Last time I had a blood test done I had to convince the phlebotomist to take it from the back of my hand instead. I still nearly blacked out, it was so scary. My blood test is in a week and I hope that I can convince them to take it from the back of my hand again or I will honest to god cry.

@@alki114 Not me, I think I will have one in two years but I'am already afraid and having nightmares 😭 I'm hemophobic
When I was a kid I was always forced into the seat by nurses, doctors, and my parents. I always had really terrible experiences and because of that I developed some pretty bad panic attacks before going to get blood drawn, eventually stopping me from ever going for multiple years. Now that I'm 21, I want to take my health more serious but this is STILL so difficult for me to come to terms with..
Considering your childhood experiences, its certainly no surprise that blood tests are causing you anxiety. We hope that the video has been useful. 💚 ^BB
I always faint whenever I have to give a blood test, there's something about those syringes piercing your nerves and the blood getting sucked out of your hands, the visuals of blood filling in the syringe.
I don't know what it is or why I'm so afraid or how I became like this, but it is what it is.
Today I fainted again and searched for what I can do to prevent it, and here I am.
I SINCERLY HOPE ALL THE NERVOUS PEOPLE IN THE COMMENTS THE BEST OF LUCK, YALL GOT THIS, YOU'RE BRAVE, YOU'RE STRONG, YOU GOT THISS
Thanks. I have to take one in 3 days :(
I’m not as scared of the needle, because I get needles every 2 weeks. But the tight band they wrap around my arm hurts so dang bad. For some reason my doctor put me in a medical experiment to help in the future other kids with my disease, but I hate pain and now I have to do all sorts of things like donating my bloods and cells :( I am super nervous!!!
Holy jeez that’s amazing-
Goodluck! I hope it goes well
Dont be nervous I’m sure it’ll go well
I just took my first blood test. Honestly, it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. On a scale for pain level for me specifically it was like a 3 out of 10. Honestly the finger prick hurt worst than getting my blood drawn 😭😂 it was mostly the aftermath, I was fine during it but as soon as she took it out I started to become super light headed and nauseous and everything became fuzzy. I thought I was about to pass out but they laid me down and put a cold compress on my head and it went away. It was actually a really good experience considering I had never gotten it done before. So if you’re nervous about it, just look away...talk to yourself in your head about things you like. yes you’re gonna feel the pinch but it’s only a couple of secs of pain. And I would recommend eating before getting it down. I didn’t know I was getting blood drawn and I didn’t eat and that was most likely the reason I almost passed out.
It’s not that painful is it? That’s the part I hate the most is the pain.
dont eat before! you’re supposed to be on a 6 hour fast before the drawing of blood!
@@6600jI think it depends on the type of test. I'm taking an anaemia test and doc said I can eat 🤷♀️

Are you okay now?
Watching this in prep for some shots. I have a huge fear of needles. I had one when I was young when I was about overcome it, i had an awful blood test experience and now I’m not only afraid of needles, but I’m afraid of blood. That nurse has scarred me for life.
(This is nothing against healthcare workers! We’d all be dead without them, especially me. It was a bad experience I had with one nurse and it wasn’t entirely her fault. Healthcare workers are some of if not the most important people, not just now, but they always are. If any doctors or nurses happen to be reading this, thank you!!!!)
Watching this while I’m being driven to the blood test
I can't deal with pain AT ALL and I am VERY afraid of needles so this was very helpful. 😀
To anyone who has to get their blood drawn: I know it might be scary but it really isn’t that bad. I have to get mine drawn every 3 months for the rest of my life.. At first I was really scared about it but it wasn’t that bad
thank u so much for comforting others here
Yes it is that bad...why would you lie to people.
I’m getting a blood test tomorrow. I’ve gotten tons of them before, because I have food allergies and get bloodwork all the time to check on how severe my allergies are. It’s not the bloodwork that scares me, it’s the fact that I may have to eat something I might still be allergic to.
Same but what scares me is the needle.. i just can't handle it. It's not just a tiny little pain because the needle is literally going through my vain. So yes it hurts.
Good for those who faint, but what if you feel like you gonna, but you actually don't and you have to feel all this all the way through, bad experiences
Getting a blood test in a few days, im hella scared
me too :(
lol.. how was it?
I just did mine and they did it 4 times just to find my veins and they did but they blamed me of not drinking water when I drink 6 cups every day and they still said I didn’t drink a lot and that was the worst experience and they had to book me another appointment And from now on I hate blood tests and will never trust nurses every in my life
@みつMitu thanksss they told me they were sorry and kept a record of me so they give me Experienced nurses that do it in one go
I’m getting my first blood test today don’t know why I’m watching these vids just making me more nervous lol
How'd it go?
St1ngray GBG it went well it wasn’t painful at all just felt a bit tight when the blood was being taken
ive got a blood test today, I have to do it because of my extremely painful periods and low immune system :( im quite nervous, but as I’m watching these videos I am feeling better about it. I cant specifically think of WHY I’m scared, I think I’m just scared of being scared 😭 I need to do it for the results, so I’m bringing headphones, I’m looking the other way the whole time, and I’m letting the person know I have bad anxiety. Hope it goes ok!!
The thing is. Needles are my worst nightmares. My blood test is only next week but I cried today thinking about it.
I had my first test a few weeks ago end what I have to say is that your experience might be better or worst depending on who is using that needle luckily for me it was ok
I just got mine done and my heart rate got at 216, and I had to be taken to the ER to even have it done.
It was all like for nothing. Like it didn’t even hurt.
My anxiety just got the best of me.
So tip- just listen to music on ur phone it does not hurt at all
I did blood test yesterday due of my work. As a needle phobic I will share my experience, maybe this will help someone
I was needle phobic for over 15y due of my childhood trauma in hospital. I was afraid getting blood tests, IVs or vaccinations. And because of that I ignored mandatory medical procedures. But now I am basically free from needle phobia (I am still bit scared, ca 10%)
VACCINATIONS/GETTING SHOTS: Pain level 2/10
For those who are afraid getting shot I want to encourage you. Nowdays needles are so thin sharp that your body aint gonna feel almost nothing.When I got the covid vaccines, during the injection I felt like someone was holding a pencil point on my arm and I didn't feel the needle go in or the sting. I asked the nurse when you're going to prick me, and she said it's already done. The only thing that hurts is the pain after the injection, but it depends on the vaccine
BLOOD TEST: Pain level 4,5/10
For those who are afraid getting blood test, I want to encourage you. If you are so afraid then 1)dont look 2)distract yourself (pinch yourself on the lip and focus on that) 3)relax your arms (stiff arm makes blood test more painful). The needle was so sharp that I didn't feel anything, but the sting stung because the hand was cleaned with an alcohol cloth beforehand. And when the nurse collected blood, the stinging disappeared. What made it unpleasant was that I felt that the needle was in the vein, but it is not painful, rather unpleasant. But the time passed quickly and the hand did not hurt after that.
Thanks to sharp needles and professional medical personel my fear of needles dissapeared last year. Before I end my speech I want to share quote which is 100% true
FEAR COMES ALWAYS BEFORE OR AFTER THE SITUATION. DURING THE MOMENT THE FEAR DISSAPEARS
Guys, I just got my blood drawn yesterday and it wasn’t bad! It was my first time. Just make sure to not look and distract yourself. Trust me, I am the biggest baby when it comes to needles. But, it was not bad at all! Before, I couldn’t stop thinking about a needle piercing my vein (that’s what i was more scared of, then the pain), but if you look away and, for me, focus my hearing on another conversation in the room, you’ll be fine! If I had to rate the pain… 2/10 :)
@Isabelle Gomez how did it go??
Guys for whoever is watching this lemme tell you something. I have extreme fear of needles and the sight if needle freaks me out. Today i took a blood test and if i say.. It's ok to be scared. What i did is, i told my Phlebotomist that i had trypanophobia and she called another Phlebotomist who i think has more experience
Even if you are afraid or nervous it's okay justs don't look at the needle or syringe. When the needle is inserted you'll feel a sudden sting but after the needle is in it won't be that bad of a pain. You won't feel much and when the needle is pulled out you'll feel a sting again but not as much as the first sting. The first sting is like when a wasp pricks you.
It will be over before 30 seconds so don't worry
My lovelies you got this blood test. You would do good. Just take in a deep breath and go forward 💜💜
Hello i am 13 and getting a blood test this week and i am terrified, Because i remember when i was very young (like 5-7 yrs old) i had it done and i cried my eyes out on the first tube than i had to get a second tube done, I had to count to 10 to "calm myself", And well that didn't work because for some reason the pain i had was unbearable..😔😢😭😭
Even hearing her talking about needles and veins sends shiver down my gut. I don't know, I'm not afraid of needles but it happens subconsciously
Just had my blood test and I was scared without any reason, No Pain at max a 1.5/10 for the first second. It takes almost 30 seconds so try to be calm as it may feel long but doesn't hurt at all during that time. All the best 👑.
I used to faint during blood tests. Then I got a tip that changed everything. Instead of trying to relax as much as possible, instead make sure your circulation is good by "breathing with your belly". Inhale - extend your belly.. exhale - pull in your belly. Maybe 4-5 seconds inhale and 4-5 seconds exhale. Haven't fainted since then, and I have taken alot of blood tests. I still dislike them! But I don't faint anymore. If you keep your circulation going there is much less chance you will faint, plus this technique also makes you focus on something else.
OMGGGG REALLY Thankyouuu!!! I've always wanted to find a cure for this and I'll try it next time, if it works, I owe u my whole life😭❤️
I'm getting bloodwork done in 2 weeks, and the worst part is I am going on vacation tomorrow so I'll be thinking about it the whole time 😭
I had to get blood tests every two weeks and I was terrified. But the nurses were so amazing and kind I soon got it done. The needle really hurts a ton but once you get over the fear and untense it doesn't hurt that much
To not faint, you have to keep breathing. When you faint, it's because there isn't enough oxygen in the brain.
im having a blood test soon to test for iron or vitamin d deficiency and/or alopecia and im t e r r i f i e d
how’d it go
I’ve had them done before a few times now, I just wanna say I’m still terrified as hell. People tell me it doesn’t hurt but it does when your freaking out and all you can feel is the needle, like I can’t even focus on what others are saying to me I get so worked up. I honestly have always been terrified of needles, and even after having lots of experience with them I’m still afraid 🫠 I’ve tried so many ways to calm myself down but none of them really work for me.

The pain is never the worst it’s literally just the pressure under it.. and im also doing a test in the early morning :( also known as my sleep hours.
Getting blood test tomorrow to review my b12, not gonna lie I have a huge phobia of needles plus it doesn’t help that my veins are impossible to find, wish me luck (I fainted last time 😂)
I tried to get a blood test. No blood came out. They tried everything. I felt I was going to faint that entire time.
Im getting my blood test tomorrow for nursing requirement and i am freaking genuinely scared
I can literally feel the needles piercing my skin and going inside my flesh just by imagining it
And no kidding
I can literally feel it
I used to be ok with blood drawls but since then ive had several horrible trumatizing experiences, one during a mental health crisis, that where incredibly painful and lead to me puking and passing out.
The girl who fainted I related so much too omg. I got my blood drawn for the first time just like her and with anxiousness after watching several people getting blood drawn did kind of taunt me so I was already nervous. At first I was like okay this isn't bad I felt literally nothing and I was like yes I got the needle in were done. The blood all came out and I was doing fine nothing even pinched in fact I didn't even feel anything! But it was after once I got it drawn when I stood up I had fainted. Only for like a few seconds but enough to grab the attention of the surrounding nurses. It was quite frightening the feeling of fainting paired with just have gotten your blood drawn. It honestly was only because it was so funny to me that it didn't even hurt and I was so scared in advance that it would hurt so much. Along with this I am anemic. That's what the blood test was for and apparently I need a lot more iron that what my body can provide for me so that's what caused me to personally faint. Anyone reading this comment good luck to your blood test! Fear is what makes everything worse and there's is literally no pain whatsoever! Good luck and don't be afraid, it's truly nothing! :)
Having a blood test soon...and I'm scared 😬 hoping it's going well :D
nothing helps me with my phobia. i pass out *EVERYTIME* i have to get a blood test or injections.
Wasnt worried about fainting til i saw this video
I’m not scared on the needles or blood? But the idea of a needle going into my vein is the same as taking a scalpel and cutting open my stomach. Same fear.
I’m going on a blood test 😭😭helpppp
Look away and stay as calm as you can. It sucks but it's for your health. If you feel dizzy after it's done ask if you can drink some juice.
ThyGreek Thank you I already did it and I stayed calm thank you I’ll use your advice next time thanks 👍
? Well what my doctor did she just made me talk with my parents and not loook and I felt a little prick in my arm and then like 10 seconds later she finished I didn’t faint so. Yeah

Watching that little bottle fill with blood.... NA I Cnt be doing that 💀💀
I'm donating blood today and I'm very nervous but I just need to conquer my fear and help people. I'm still scared, though.
When i had my blood test i didn't feel a thing honestly
What does it Feel Like tho i want to know iam sacred
it feels like uh a little tiny knife going through your veins
“I barely felt it” omg no 🤣🤣 I know this is trying to make people feel better but don’t lie 💀💀
Thats so true lmao
Everyone says it was painless but deep down you know.....
....they felt something
have a blood test tomorrow. wish me luck
I legit almost passed out today for the first time. Not sure if it was because I didn’t eat enough or if I was scared of needles
Just did a blood test.
Fun Day does it hurt when it goes in?
@@Lurod_ Trust me when you get nervous your mind tricks you into thinking it's gonna be painful but it's not, same with middle school shots I'm in 6th grade and I took 2 in one arm, but the side effects of the shots in middle school is that they'll kinda numb your arm so it's better to get all of them on one so you could use the other arm for something but besides that. No, the blood test don't hurt
MINE SHAKE MY ARM SHAKES!!!! WHAT THE
What kind of blood work can anyone recommend
mine is tomorrow morning, im so scared but i just have to get it over with. tips are appreciated :,) ill tell you all how it goes (from the perspective of someone horribly afraid of needles and doctors offices)
I'm not scared of the pain, I don't know what I'm scared of I just can't seem to have a blood test done- I sit down take the cream stuff off my arms the person gets the needle holds it near my arm I close my eyes burst into tears scream no and run away
OMG same
I got a blood test when i was 5 i cried but the nurse gave me a lolipop and i stop crying
Thats litteraly every person ever

I’ve had several done. It doesnt really hurt, it just feels like a small pinch. The alcohol they put on your skin beforehand is pretty cold so that kind of makes your brain focus on that more. If you’re scared of fainting, ask to be laid down, it helps a LOT. Don’t get up too quickly if you feel iffy. Apple juice and cookies help, too. I’ve fainted twice but both times were my fault.
I’m gonna chug an entire bottle of apple juice before I leave 😆
@@dream_walker9726 That will help
@@megan8765 :D
I can't tell whether I faint after the blood draw because of the physical factors or psychological ones.
