I have a job that requires a yearly mantoux shot. I have one nurse I trust, and we've been through this for the past five years. She has to block off an hour and a half to do my shot. 45 minutes before for me to get ready. 45 minutes afterward for me to hyperventilate.
I'm banned from the Redi-Med at St. Joe Hospital. I punched a nurse in the face. I told her to give me a few minutes to de-escalate before the shot. I asked her to strap my arms down. She did neither, and I didn't want to, but I decked her. I had to get a doctor for my nurse. Oops.

I am the same way. I was the treehouse king when I was little. Now I have baby trees growing out of my gutters because I REALLY don't want to get up there.
I read somwhere that it's your body's way of telling you that you don't have that great of balance anymore.
When we went to Cedar Point this Summer, I had no problem with riding all the coasters we were able to get into; but three times, we went on those stupid suspended cable cars, and that scared the heck outa' me, especially when they went over the support towers.
I think it was the thought of one tiny cable holding us up there being inspected for safety every day by people making minimum wage.

Yup, that's the only thing stopping me.
It struck again today. At work we had to train on giving insulin shots (apparently for a new client we're getting.) I would've been ok if it was just one lady up front giving a demo, but when she passed out needles to everyone I freaked and ran out of the room. I was hyperventilating so I went outside for fresh air - I ended up puking in the beautifully maintained landscaping outside our building.

I don't ride roller coasters - PERIOD. This was true before I got fat. Those things are no fun for 6'5" people, regardless of weight. Plus, I hate the drops and turns. Give me a beer and keep my feet flat on the ground, thank you very much.

Good God no. Moreover, we were in a big conference room sitting at a table and she gave EVERYONE a needle. Talk about my nightmare scenario. Everywhere I looked around me, within 3 feet of me there was a needle. I freaked.
