It got much worse when I started going to the dentist, where I immediately had to get an anesthetic shot to remove a tooth. Did you know that anesthesia does not work if you're too stressed out? I learned it that day. They ignored the screaming and went through with it. /3

Today I finally took my vaccine. I talked to the people there until I felt more confident, tried a few things, tried to get my heart rate down. It was very hard for me to tell them I was ready. But when it did happen, it was fairly quick and mostly painless. It's done. 14/

I'm sharing this in the hope it helps someone in a similar situation. It caused me a lot of distress for decades, that I didn't think I was capable of changing, but I did, and you can too. Good luck! 15/

Bonus joke overheard at the vaccination center: - Will I be able to swim after getting the vaccine? - I don't see why not. - Excellent! Because I can't swim. Irish people are great.
