OK ,Fear of needles (Shots) Comes naturally. It is an instinct to not touch pointy things. But, we need this instincts.

  1. You are Styrofoam. So if doesn't hurt.
  2. Look AWAY From the Nurse
  3. RELAX YOUR MUSCLE.
  4. Act like its not a needle. Its a thorn. But someone quickly pulls it out.
  5. Act like its not happening.
  6. Try to not move the area of injection. Less blood flow to the area will use less nerve
DO NOT MOVE THE AREA WHILE ITS BEING PRECEDED ON!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Do NOT Look At the needle when brought in.
  • Praise your self , tell your self that didn't hurt.
  • Think of your favorite song. Think of the Climax of the song.
