I want to be a nurse but I cant get over my fear, please help!!!
I feel uncomfortable with needle , but I don't freak out when i see someone get vaccinated, so I think I will be ok with it. I tried to expose my self to the " bloody " environment of the dental office several time ( too chicken to try the hospital though:chair:) , and my reaction were the same. I have to leave the room, because it upset my stomach. I felt like I was going to throw up and pass out, and the hot flush and everything . I saw the dentist using the scalpel cutting and cutting into the gum and blood was everywhere in her mouth , and then he used the thing to try to get the tooth out ( I think) , and I have to get out of there before I make a mess. the last time I went to the dentist office to try to get over my fear, I stay for the whole procedure, but I have to look away most of the time. It was like this, I took a glance at what was going on, look away tried to control my breathing and not throw up or pass out for like 10 minutes or so, and then another glance. but by the time I got out of there I felt so drained . that whole day I felt like I got no energy left in me. so shadow a nurse for a day, I don't know what would happen. I really want to get over this fear if it's possible, but the more I talk about it, my dream of becoming a nurse just getting farther and farther.:crying2:

I just want to help, and comfort people when they needed it. I feel helpless whenever someone is in pain or suffering, and I can't do anything about it. I want to comfort them, make them feel better, or at least help them ease the physical pain. I know it's kind of stupid when Im talking about wanting to help people with their pain and stuff , and in reality whenever I see someone with a nasty cut, or any injury involve with lots of blood or broken bone , I freak out. yeah, it's almost like im having a panic attack whenever that happen. It's just the physical pain of other people that trigger the stupid reaction that I get every single time.

hi, i want to become a nurse, but i can not get over my fear. like many other people im afraid of needle and such, but the thing that bother me the most is when i see , hear or just think of the idea that someone is in pain make me sick. i feel lightheaded , gasping for air, and i dont know how to describe the feeling, but my whole body feel so weird, and i have to concentrate on control my breathing otherwise god know what would happen. like i said, it just the idea of someone in pain is enough to trigger my " uneasy feeling". im ok with blood by itself though. like if i see some blood on the floor or in the test tube , im fine. i dont have any problem with that, but the moment i see it on someone, then my mind start to think he/she is in pain and then the whole weird thing take over my body and i can't stand it. it make me feel as if i was going to get sick or something. i really want to be a nurse, but i need to get over this fear. does anyone ever feel like this ? or am i just weird ? please if anyone have any idea, or advice to help me get over this, i really appreciate .
