Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

I shouldn't have an opinion on this, I really shouldn't. >.>;

why do i even say my opinion anymore lol

Job or not, reasons be damned, it's just kinda weird to get enjoyment from inflicting pain on people.. <_<

I mean it doesn't bother me so much, I'm a lot weirder than that, but I can easily understand why it's so off putting.

It personally makes me squeam. She likes it? Good for her, seriously.

Now I like cleaning, but if I became a janitor, I would definitely not talk about certain aspects of the job, no matter how much I genuinely enjoy that stuff haha.

And date material? Yeah, some stuff is not what you should talk about haha

what you looking at?

found this, thought it was cool

You guys are pussies if you get upset over needles that easily. >_>

butterless?!

This one time I had to get blood drawn, and the person really sucked at doing it, so they were sitting there digging around in my arm. That sounds like a fun time doesn't it?

or the time they couldnt find the vein in my hand cuz they wanted to put an IV there >_____> digging in your hand isnt fun either!

Hey unlike most I have a legitimate reason to be afraid of them.. You try getting your head stitched up at 5 with no pain medication whatsoever, see if you don't develop a severe phobia of needles.

My phobia is so damned bad, last time I went to the dentist, last thing I remember was needle going towards my mouth, next thing I wake up and dentist is freaking out and every single aide in the building is standing around me.. I started having convulsions, from fear.

Xanax works though, I can push needles through me for fun on it. I have video <_<

Why did you not have pain medication? I had my face stitched together when I was 5 and my head stitched together when I was 8, and I've never not had the proper medication.

eh what i hate is when they stab it into you <wich they shouldnt do cuz it runs the risk of breaking the needle off into you>

Not to guess at Volkom's date's state-of-mind or professionalism, but having done medical training in the armed services, I think I understand what she might have been getting at.

Since the act of drawing blood is normally relatively painless if you find the vein straight away, it's actually the searching part that causes the person the most pain. So maybe her perspective is that she enjoys it when she does successfully find the vein right off, causing them minimum discomfort, and not so much that she's sadistic and likes to see people suffer. :p

Then again, maybe she's actually like that dentist on the musical remake of "Little Shop of Horrors" instead... >.>;;


There are different types of injections. Subcutaneous injections, intravenous, or intramuscular, etc. The ones that go into your muscle (like in the deltoid) have to be shot straight into the muscle mass, as that's where the medication will be locally administered.

They said I was bleeding too badly and there was no time. Maybe they were just ***, I don't know.. End result was the same. Crap ton of stitches right then and there and nothing to numb the pain. I remember them holding me down and I remember fighting as hard as I could to get up and screaming. Was just a very horrible and traumatic experience.

I had a particularly evil cat jump on me when I was 5, it started just clawing and ripping at me, I remember grabbing it and throwing it, or trying to, and it just came right back. (This cat was worse than most pit bulls)

I still have a clearly visible scar running through my ear. It almost looks like they stitched up a metal rod in there to hold it upright.. Goes from like the ear hole to the top of my ear.

Does it bother you talking about such things though? If it doesn't, it's not really the same thing I'm getting at. I'd be lying if I said I didn't get anxious in the moment.

ooh yay download of Gods Eater Burst finished on my Vita :3

Is this to me? If so I'm confused.

Yeah, I was asking if you would be bothered discussing the subject, or if it only bothers you actually having to do it.

Just threw me cuz you coulda asked that instead of asking why I didn't have pain medication.

To answer your question, yes and no. Strictly talking about it? No doesn't bother me, because I push it out of my mind as best as I can and try not to remember all the 'horrible horrible' experiences I've had with needles. Can just talking about it bother me and give me problems? Yep. The second visual cues, whether they be memory, imagination, video, pictures or even watching it first hand, get involved, I am likely to lose all the color in my face and start having tunnel vision or even entirely pass out.

My phobia of needles is greater than anything else. I am absolutely terrified of planes, as in they would have to sedate me to get me on one, or I would spend the entire time fighting to break loose of whatever restraints I may be in and screaming at the top of my lungs.. My phobia of needles is even greater. It's just a different type of phobia. As I don't perceive needles to be an actual threat to my life in the way I do planes, I won't resist them as badly, that isn't to say my anxiety related to them isn't greater.

Was just pointing out that even someone like you can stomach a conversation about it. I guess I have an old fashioned mindset when It comes to being manly.

Can, but at the same time, I'm still a pussy upset that easily by needles <_<

watched the female Gymnastics Olympic final doohickey...I wanted to do gymnastics so bad when I was a child..ugg....I guess we can kiss any chance of Nastia Liukin making it to the team goodbye. Now I gotta look up the Canadian line up because I cheer for them also even though they..are..not..so great....

Let's be real though. The date probably didn't go well because it wasn't an imaginary character from an anime.

oh god! I walk into this thread and the last post is one of my biggest fears >_<. I HATE needles!

*cue the vader NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO picture*

Wish I could find a picture of a spider with a needle and post it without spoilers.
