Needle phobia
I was wondering does anyone else have a needle phobia because I am so scared of needles and I have got vaccinations tomorrow.

It sounds horrible to have a needle phobia, and I can imagine knowing you have vaccinations tomorrow may be worrying you.
Have you got any techniques that usually work for you to help manage any anxiety that you may be feeling due to the vaccinations?
This information leaflet here contains lots of information about needle phobias, overcoming the fear, self help ideas and a few helplines. It may be worth a read!
Let us know how you get on tomorrow
My best friend has a phobia of needles too! I understand it can make vaccinations a frightening thing, but it's really good that you are talking about it.
How did you get on?
Im sorry to hear that you struggle with needle phobia, you took a great step in reaching out on the boards
I hope it all went okay
