Fear of Needles

Well you are not alone!

In fact, some studies suggest you are amongst 15% of the population who avoid medical or dental treatment as a result.

When a person experiences an uncomfortable or traumatic event, the sympathetic nervous system takes the body into survival mode, otherwise known as the fight or flight response.

By releasing adrenalin, increasing heart and breathing rates, increasing blood supply to the muscles, enhancing reflexes, and dilating the pupils, all of which happens unconsciously, the mind and the body prepare to either run away from or to engage the perceived source of the danger.

At the same time, a highly emotional memory of the event can become permanently lodged in the amygdala, which is part of our Limbic System, the brains emotional hub.

The brain holds onto this memory as it believes that this is important to our survival, hence whenever you encounter a situation or object that is anything like the original trauma, the mind and body responds as if in a survival situation and goes into fight and flight mode.

So if you’ve felt anxious about needles in the past, even if you don’t know why, your friendly subconscious mind will trigger this phobic response anxiety. Even thought your conscious mind doesn’t want it too!!

This is the basis of any phobia: a fear response attached to something resembling that was present during the original trauma.

What all this means is although you need to have your injection or blood test you cannot rationalise with the subconscious mind and the phobic response will continue unless you can change it at subconscious level.
