I have really severe needle phobia - vasovagal response, pass out, avoid doctors, "start crying at the sight of one of those chairs people sit in to receive injections" type severe. Has anybody had this or have any advice for what to do about this?

Have you tried to reflect on the phobia in a state of increased attention and decreased identification (i.e. suitably medicated)? Not sure if it would help you but I am curious. Phobias may be a kind of local dysphoria that self perpetuates due to negative valence and aversion.
