I am trypanophobic (I am afraid of shots, injections, and needles) and it is frustrating because I cannot control myself when I am at the doctor's office. Does anyone have any solutions?

I use to be afraid of needles but i'm not any more,

I think you should just put your mind on something else and just try not to think of it.

Or you can just listen to music and zone out.

I really hope that this helps you a lot.

I have been getting needle injections ever since i was 7. I usually would hold my moms hand when i was younger but i hold my fist tight and i dont think of the needle at all or even look at it. I usually go over in my head what i need to do that day. Breath normally too
