I'm just wondering if anyone here can relate to an issue I am having. I can give shots (I work around animals) but I get incredibly uneasy about seeing blood. In particular MY blood. Then it progressed to blood of someone I cared about and then to the sight of any blood. When I was young I was not uncomfortable with this kind of thing at all but I can tell its getting worse as I get older, though I am only in my mid twenties.
I have thrown up on several occasions and almost black out on many occasions. Now it tends to lead to a panic attack unless I am able to distract or remove myself from the situation. I did faint once when I was about 7 and it really scared me but that was when I had the flu...no blood involved!
It has gotten to the point that even when I am in class for example and we are talking about internal organs or brain parts I get really uncomfortable and panicky feeling. I am a psych major so we talk about the brain a lot. Although I find it really interesting I get sick feeling every time. Most of the time I have to leave the classroom for a few minutes or if I can in a conversation with friends change the subject. I do ok reading about it in books but hearing it out loud or seeing it is recipe for disaster.
I do my best to avoid having to be around blood as I have no desire to be a nurse or doctor, but I dont like that it is effecting me to the point where just hearing about the insides of the body makes me want to pass out. I dont like to feel limited by this. Any suggestions..?
