weird fears

idk why but when i see veins i feel really lightheaded and sensitive it makes feel like im going to throw up, people always think im weird but its an issue for me, ive got a blood test coming up and im kind of nervous as the last time vein popped so it made everything worse.

Some people just find it strange like that. some people find feet weird too and hate the thought of them. I do understand though, its where blood goes round the body and seeing something so visual can make you go funny. And the experience you had didnt help matters. When you have your blood test, just look away and take deep breaths in. Also have a choco bar or drink before hand thats got some sugar in so you dont feel faint.

Depends on what the blood test is for. If its blood sugars then probably not wise. Choc bar shouldnt mess up your iron levels though.
