So I know this my 3rd thread here in like 3 days, but I've really been considering switching to a career path of an RN. However, I don't know how I'd be able to handle needles (injecting someone, doing IVs, etc). I'm not THAT freaked out by it, and I think it's something I can overcome. I'm not really that bad with blood in general, I think I'd just get used to it. But just something about the phlebotomy portion of being an RN, I think I'd have a hard time doing. Is there any advice you can give on how to overcome this phobia? I'd hate for something so silly to prevent me from going into a career where I could be doing what I really want, which is helping people.
