My friend’s son has gone to three therapy sessions for his fear of needles, and the child psychotherapist is helping to desensitize him from being immensely scared. Sure, getting shots isn’t pleasant, but it shouldn’t make us physically sick. In fact, the doctor told my friend this was an irrational fear and a simple problem to solve, but it needed to be addressed right away to avoid it becoming a habit during an anxiety-inducing or stressful situation.
