How to get over my fear?
I have an awful fear of needles. Anything from a shot to getting my ears pierced has sent me into full blown anxiety attacks and I always faint and usually also get nauseous and sick.This being said I need to be able I get shots for medical purposes, and I also have a love of piercings and tattoos which I can not get because this fear and affects of it are so bad. Any ideas on how to get over it so I can be healthy and also express myself and how I look the way I wish to? Thank you!!!

Next time you get a tooth ache, don't go to the dentist until it gets good and infected. I decided there was nothing the dentist or doctor could do that would hurt as much as that.
Later in life I got a couple of tattoos.
When you do have to get stuck with a needle, try to occupy your mind with something else. Look away and talk to the nurse about your job/school or something like that. Wiggle your toes and concentrate on that. Count the cieling tiles.
Think about how tough and badass you are for enduring the pain.
