I have a friend who passes out every time he gets his blood drawn. He’s like a deflating balloon.
He’s diabetic and has to get blood work done every so often, and he always warns the person taking his blood that he’s going to pass out for a second, and it’s no big deal, but they always act surprised and panic when it happens.
Yeah, I had to go to therapy for that. What works for me is closing my eyes so I don’t get to see the needle or the blood. I still feel a bit weird after but I don’t pass out anymore.
