Hi! Excellent post! I can relate to topics mentioned in your post due to some fears of my own that prohibit me from doing normal things. You mentioned needles being a common fear, which is one that I dealt with for a long time until I had to overcome it when I needed surgery. I definitely agree that it is important for one to overcome their fears and I have certainly felt less anxious about going to the doctor or needing blood work done.
