[sweetestmarshmallow]

Whumpee who will fight their whumper to get needles away from them getting hurt worse by the whumper with more needles and their restrained and begging it to stop and left alone the pain of the needles in their arms lingering..maybe they'll fight less next time? If they get a next time..

im utterly terrified of needles bc of an incident in childhood, when theyre near me my heart races when theyre in me i grow horribly nauseous... theyre my worst fear but i dont wanna b controlled by that fear all my life, it makes it harder 2 go 2 the doctor, 2 stay vaccin8d and healthy, and i fear i may nvr b able 2 go on injections 4 hrt. if u or any1 reading this ask have any advice itd rly mean the world 2 me, b4 that incident had happened 2 me id recovered mostly from a fear of needles id always had 2 begin w/ but ever since that its so much worse and im so scared ill nvr get better.

hiya gorgeous :)

as a very young child, I was diagnosed with Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura, which means that my immune system eats my blood platelets sometimes. I had to get my blood drawn a lot to monitor my platelet count, over time I developed a strong fear of needles and eventually had to be physically restrained during blood draws, which left me with a massive needle phobia. pretty much the only part I didn't get was vasovagal syncope (passing out at the sight/thought of needles).

it took me a week and two separate instances of putting an entire bottle of wine into myself to do my first injection, nowadays it's more like doing the dishes than being in active combat.

with full knowledge of just how fucking terrifying it is to inject yourself: I promise you can do it.

I wrote a little guide, I hope it's helpful to you. if you have any questions or just want me to talk about it more, let me know, I'm more than happy to help. this problem is very near and dear to my heart 💜

I'm pro vaccine, one hundred percent. Vaccines work and if you have the ability to get vaccinated, please do! It's especially important right now. That being said, I am pro vaccine, but anti needle. By that I mean, I am terrified of needles, I have fought nurses on instinct when getting shots, I have turned a couple second shot into an hour long battle. Its a whole ordeal. (I can't even look at pictures or videos of them on screen without having to immediately cover it or look away). I have no reason to be SO scared of them, but I am. I'm hoping that someday they'll just...not have to use needles. UNTIL THEN, I WILL POWER THROUGH MY EXTREME FEAR. Seriously though, get vaccinated if you can. It's important.

1. I've mentioned this before but I'm uncreative as f. I can bark and sound like a real dog. But it really puts oofsies on my throat.

2. My real life personality is far more socially awkward than that of my online personality. If any of my online friends, doesn't matter how well I know them, were to meet me for real? They'd think they had the wrong person.

3. My ability to eat food in a regular pattern doesn't exist. Just last Saturday I didn't eat for a whole day, and then I ate like 1 meal the next day. And today, it's still morning, but I'll probably not eat much today, either.

4. I have a SWEET tooth. I mean, even if my eat pattern is all fucked up, give me some chocolate, candy, anything with sugar really and all of a sudden I'm actually EATING something. Mostly I keep to snacks such as chips/cheese balls etc.

5. I have an extreme fear of needles. It's not fun. I can't look at needles online, and I can't stand near them. Y'all expect me to sit still, seeing a sharp ass thing nearing me, fully knowing it's going to hurt and go into my skin? Nononononono. No.

6. I also have an immense fear of height. And when I say immense I mean... I can like stand on something that's 5 feet above the ground and I don't dare get down from there if I can't find a safe way to do so...

A whumpee being so terrified of needles they'll struggle and scream and beg so the needles never touch their skin so they never feel that same piercing stab they felt for years. They'll risk getting sick if it means no needles touch them

I have to get two vaccines on the 22nd…. If you guys have subliminals or hypnotisms or something that help you with needle fear please send me them. I have a system and coping mechanisms but I’d rather be less scared going in.
