Something about me that I hate.

Blood. It doesn't make me squeemish.  I was first on the scene after a guy riding his bike got hit by a bus.  I slapped some pads on his wounds, did first aid no problem.  A friend of mine needed stitches and I was the one holding the bandage on his shoulder until we got to the ER.  Absolutely does not bother me.

That doesn't bother me about myself.  What bothers me about myself is I get one little cut and if I see myself bleeding I damn near pass out.  And as I am getting dizzy and the bells are clanging in my head I think, "you idiot it's just a little blood what is your problem?"

Like WTF?  I don't panic I just slowly black out.  It makes me feel like a total idiot. I also hate having to explain to people that it's not me freaking out it's just something that happens when I see my own blood.  It's irritating. I just cut myself cleaning my food processor and am now sitting here on the sofa recovering from my mortal wound (aka a small nick that bled for about two seconds).

    Did you have a trauma occur when you were younger? I used to love gory movies, but I can't hardly stomach anything since my pregnancy.

    I'm actually the same way. I can stomach almost anything -- as long as its happening to someone else. If I see myself bleeding, all hell breaks loose. I can't blame it on a weird quirk though. I totally panic like a baby.

    Nope no trauma.  I am just weird.  It's purely physiological and it ticks me off lol.
