[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 2145533, member: 53162"] Hello [USER=514907]@Tinkleberry[/USER] Unfortunately it's one of those things that the more you think about it, the more of an issue it will become, I have to admit at one stage I found myself also lingering a while before finally jabbing, what got me through this was using a distraction technique, so hum your favourite tune, pinch an inch and look at something like a clock and do it to the count of 10 and it's done. Many others also experience similar and I work with a guy recently diagnosed lada who has had to overcome his fear of injections to cope with this, he's got through it now and so will you but try a different approach and it will help, also is your insulin room temperature when you inject ?
