I wish lifelong prosperity for the lady who took my blood today. Told her I had a severe needle phobia and this was my first ever blood test (I'm fucking 30 💀) and she was soooooo gentle and kind and encouraging and took it in complete stride even when I burst into tears and I'm just very grateful for her and I'm glad I told her she's amazing as I left even though I was tear-soaked and shaking like a leaf lol. She is a hero to me.

#can't believe i actually went through with it jesus christ #I'm still a bit freaked out but it was WAY less painful than a vaccination/injection #and so far the aftermath (which is usually intense prolonged panic and fixation on the injection site) is also less extreme #I wasnt expecting to cry lol but I honestly think it helped somehow #between this and also going to the dentist for the first time in over a decade I am truly feeling like the bravest little guy #but also very tired and done with having a physical form #personal
