I'm an EMT. I have some medical knowledge and shit. BUT, I'm awful at I.V.'s. I can do them. I have done them. But as of late, I've had about zero luck with them and I'm starting to develop a lot of anxiety. Like, I want nothing to do with them anymore. I don't want to do venipuncture at all. And when I miss, it depressed the hell out of me. It's kinda terrible. Makes me want to just disappear...

You're right; practice is all it takes. I can practice on the people I work with. All I gotta do is ask. They'll let me. I've been thinking seriously about it. But of all the things we know how to do, I.V. prowess is the biggest pissing contest. Man, fuck I.V.'s!!

I should quit and become a professional Dodgeball player...

Nice to meet you Xcleroy,

Never let the fear and anxiety grasp a hold of the knowledge you posess. I certainly believe without a doubt that you can do the I.V. by keeping calm and maintaining balanced patience. You will get it wink
