I am having trouble studying the cadavers and the photos of them for my anatomy class. I keep feeling very nauseated and imagining the prosection/skinning. It is making it hard for me to study what I need to in the picture. The pictures that look more garbled or that show remnants of the skinning process are the worst (fingertips, reflected skin, etc). I know it's psychological and I need to get past it, but it's easier said than done.
I am not normally a squeamish person - I can handle all kinds of unpleasentries with the human body, but this one seems to get me.
Does anyone have any advice or tips on how they got through it? Do you think I can get by with just studying the models? (Our tests are on cadavers.)
Thanks!
Annie
