I just donated for the first time and 'went funny' didn't pass out, but felt really hot and like I was hearing the nurs through a tunnel. Apparently MORE MEN pass out from donating than women, and the reason I 'went funny' was the drop in adrenaline when the process was over. Everyone was great and I think this is something everyone should consider doing. x
Thanks for the info, make sense because a couple weeks back i passed out again before i was about to donate blood. It happend right after i seen a nurse carrying a big pouch of blood someone else had just donated. Thats when i started thinking to my self "Damn, that's a ton of blood they are going to take out of me".
hahaha this is funny because I have the same thing too whenever I have to get a shot or have blood drawn xp it sucks but in the end I always look back at myself and laugh. The fact that drops the camera is fantastic haha I feel his pain doe
I'm 16 and I donated blood for the first time it was a really awesome experience knowing I can save 3 life's. when I went in I was so scared but the guy that took care of me was really cool and he said that it usually takes anywhere from 15-20 minutes to finish donating but it only took me like 8 and I didn't get light headed or dizzy. It was a really good 1st experience and I might become a regular donor :D
*jesus christ all that loud ass crying & all those people being so loud would be enough to get you anxious & pass out!* *its usually not the pain of the needle, its your surroundings & process of it all.*
Totally watching this to try to make myself stop passing out from needles, ahah, when I get to basic I'll have to get like 10 in a row and blood drawn... yayyyy
I had a nurse who was a trainee and he literally went in about 5 to 7 times trying to get my vein. I literally almost passed out but thankfully didn't. They had me come back and right when I got back the lady just got me on the first go. Didn't feel a thing surprisingly. Then again that was a long time ago. I was like 13 or younger.
Sorry, I still can't see that p.o.v. Me & my sis helped a homeless man to hospital once (after people just walked over him) and he was such a nice man and he had a beautiful heart. The things I've seen people do to help one another are nothing short of beautiful and amazing. :-) I really wish I could make you see it but... But if you don't agree to give blodd nobody has stolen anything from you. Just dont give it and be happy with your decision. Have a good one all the same.,
WE HAVE A CODE ONE! Seriously, these people have no idea what the hell they are doing. Its called a Vasovagal response, we have people do this in our office all the time. Rule of thumb, the bigger they are the harder they fall.
You are right: we faint when blood pressure drops -and some people do faint when giving blood - triggered by fear! However: heart beating faster actually increases blood pressure. So, usually when feared we are even less likely to faint! - it feels like we'll faint, because we feel dizzy and other sensations of panic. Paradox is that when giving blood -and being feared- some people's BP suddenly drops! Check out my profile and video about anxiety and fear...or go to my blog.
I had to give blood for a flight physical and had pretty much the same experience. Within seconds I got lightheaded and dizzy, my vision started to black out, and I felt cold. Just watching this video made me cringe; not a good feeling.
I gave blood today, felt fine until I woke up on the floor with a nurse standing over me. No idea what happened I felt fine while giving blood but passed out at the refreshment table. Don't remember a thing and I felt fine afterwards too. Bizarre.
So, I'm assuming there is a difference between vasovagel response and actually passing out from donation. I passed out while donating, but the bag was already more than half full, also didn't eat breakfast that morning. The guy in this video passed out after losing like 2 thimbles of blood. lol.
When giving blood some peoples blood pressure can drop too low, or their heart beats too fast through fear. Same for when they see blood. Scared = heart beats too fast = faint
True on the fasting part, but its just a vagal response. Im a lab technician and I deal with blood and other specimens everyday, but the day when I had my blood drawn, my own blood landed on my pants and I don't mind having open wounds,but I had a vagal response syncope. Not always just a fear.
its just a vasovagal response or (Neurocardiogenicsyncope) this would be a Vasovagal Attack. im a flight medic/nurse RN. its basically a mixture of both genders ive had kids that passed out just seeing the needle. anybody thats squeamish to blood,guts etc. will pass out but its not near enough blood taken to be Hypovolemic shock like people want to think because they think it will make them look weak so they try and say its from blood loss and such. but not the case.
yea that happens with some people, there's really no set rule what triggers people. everybody is different. you could have a murderer that dismembered people but yet seeing a needle they would pass out. that's a graphic example but that's really what it comes down too hah everybody has a different trigger a lot of people that had a bad experience at a young age with needles. some don't remember it and the parents just told them, but there body still remembered it. its a weird condition.
No joke, I just felt dizzy when they put the needle in your arm next I see purple and blue colours then next thing I know, I just woke up on my living room floor.. 😂
i was at my school blood drive and i had just finished donating blood when everything got tingly and next thing i know my head hits a table and i throw up all over myself and the doc. they picked me up and moved me to a bed like thing and put my feet up.....i lost like 30 mins or so.....
I can't tell for sure because of the camera angle, but it looks like the phlebotomist didn't anchor the vein @ 1:29. Even the 'best' veins can move without anchoring. If you didn't, sorry but that's bad practice.
Yeah That was not a very calming place. And they should be prepared for this type of thing. I heard the asking for thins to help him as if they did not know that this type of thing happens to people. Very un professional place. I would have walked out as soon as I heard the baby screaming and they never did try to calm it. I hope the needle was clean my friend. That place looks like it sucks balls to hard.
Today I went for blood work and I passed out she took about 8-9 veils of blood I passed out and my mom called the dr she said I was shaking like if I was having a seizure what an cause that and is that normal.
It sounds like you've been in your line of work just a bit too long... I just hope other people don't think like you do if you ever get hurt and need blood to survive. Besides, if done at a proper health facility with proper screening and educated personnel, the risks aren't as great as you make them out to be.
Happened to me the 1st time to. They took blood out,got up and went to go sit. The next thing that happened was so scary...had no idea where or who I was😱
animal and human blood are completely different. you cant just switch them around with each other. wow you are really ignorant about common sense things arent you?
it's a tiny needle lol i had one larger... You probably didn't eat or drink much before :/ you kinda traumatized this little baby that's why it's crying so hard hahah
why is it always guys! And you never tell tem you are a student! Ive had this happen once with a guy at work! Think people! Think! An why did she use a tiger top!

It sounds like they knew this was gonna happen..."Emma...? We have a Code 1 -.-..."
1:25
somebody needs to give the damn baby a cookie!
Somebody gave blood and Somebody gave birth, "It's a Boy!"
Thank you for explaining that.
To some people this is a rather distressing and scary thing aha, the fact he's giving blood whilst with this fear is actually rather brave! :)
Totally watching this to try to make myself stop passing out from needles, ahah, when I get to basic I'll have to get like 10 in a row and blood drawn... yayyyy
This just happened to me today for the first time and it was terrifying. I hit my chin on the floor and broke a tooth and then had a panic attack
Dear God, feed it, change it or take it home!
I had a nurse who was a trainee and he literally went in about 5 to 7 times trying to get my vein. I literally almost passed out but thankfully didn't.

It's always the big guys who are the most afraid of needles. I find it's easier if you don't look at it.
I'm 16 and donated blood today for the first time and I was only light headed for like 5 minutes lol
That baby was just having a fit!
My right ear LOVED this!

I'm an avid hunter, been around blood and guts my whole life, including mine and never fainted. When I get needles I pass out
same thing happened to me, mom said she screamed code blue, woke up upstairs 3 floors, hooked to IV's.. dont remember a damnnnn thang
They didnt even take blood and you passed out lol. But still I commend you for doing it anyway, a total selfless act on your part
I did a blood test today and passed out. I have to come back another day , not looking forward to it !
Ahhh thank you for clearing that up :)
GET THE BABY OUT OF THERE FOR THE LOVE OF MY LORD
I. FELT. EVERYTHING.
I had to give blood for a flight physical and had pretty much the same experience. Within seconds I got lightheaded and dizzy, my vision started to black out, and I felt cold. Just watching this video made me cringe; not a good feeling.
Aww, the poor guy. That baby is so damn annoying. >.< I'm thinking about donating blood. :)
GOD DAMN THAT BABY!
I gave blood today, felt fine until I woke up on the floor with a nurse standing over me. No idea what happened I felt fine while giving blood but passed out at the refreshment table. Don't remember a thing and I felt fine afterwards too. Bizarre.
Oh my gosh, someone shut up that damned baby lol

When giving blood some peoples blood pressure can drop too low, or their heart beats too fast through fear. Same for when they see blood. Scared = heart beats too fast = faint
I nearly passed out watching this!
True on the fasting part, but its just a vagal response. Im a lab technician and I deal with blood and other specimens everyday, but the day when I had my blood drawn, my own blood landed on my pants and I don't mind having open wounds,but I had a vagal response syncope. Not always just a fear.

I just had my blood drawn this morning, i didn't enjoy it either LOL.
Oo Ouch! >_> I bet the broken tooth feels way more painful than the needle lol
I have donated blood before and I was fine just feeling real funny and light afterwards I don't why people faint
I remember I had to do blood work for the hospital it's the same thing and it actually dosen't hurt as bad as it seems
yea that happens with some people, there's really no set rule what triggers people. everybody is different. you could have a murderer that dismembered people but yet seeing a needle they would pass out. that's a graphic example but that's really what it comes down too hah everybody has a different trigger a lot of people that had a bad experience at a young age with needles. some don't remember it and the parents just told them, but there body still remembered it. its a weird condition.
i hate getting my blood taken, i will never do it ever o.O
Because nobody likes to be poked... esp with a needle.
Seriously that's all i was thinking too.
youre a g for taking it in the eye..the moment i see a needle i hyperventilate...lol
owww, well thanks for giving!
This actually just happened to me today its fucking horrible so im on a fainting video streak
No joke, I just felt dizzy when they put the needle in your arm next I see purple and blue colours then next thing I know, I just woke up on my living room floor.. 😂
i was at my school blood drive and i had just finished donating blood when everything got tingly and next thing i know my head hits a table and i throw up all over myself and the doc. they picked me up and moved me to a bed like thing and put my feet up.....i lost like 30 mins or so.....
He went bright red with the first prick
Oh my god that freaking baby is annoying I would pass out too.
"We have a code blue"....lol I don't think so!
house is here to rescue
oh my Gawwwd with that baby!!
How does it confound you that someone would want to help someone else? Its not that confusing.
Looks like Kaiser Clinic....
I can't tell for sure because of the camera angle, but it looks like the phlebotomist didn't anchor the vein @ 1:29. Even the 'best' veins can move without anchoring. If you didn't, sorry but that's bad practice.

That place looks like it sucks balls to hard.
that baby is terribly annoying
I wish I would pass out but I don't
someone really should take that baby OUTSIDE!!
So after watching this video I have decided that I'm never having children. Very informative! lol!
Wow... I almost faint

Lol regard missed the first one, I could drive a truck up them veins.
Shut that baby up shut that baby up !!!! Lol hangover
Think i just fainted at your blood :(
Where's the needle?!?!!? o_O
i did it without even thinking about the needle. then when i saw my worst nightmare face to face it was too late. i did it to get out of class too ja
did they find the needle?
Today I went for blood work and I passed out she took about 8-9 veils of blood I passed out and my mom called the dr she said I was shaking like if I was having a seizure what an cause that and is that normal.
i almost passed out today
i had blood taken too
why did he jam that in there he was supposed to go slow. looked like he was stabbing at a piece of meat or a balloon.
There is a word for fainting often my doctor told me after I fainted like 2 times but I don't remember what's called!
I have to sit for 5 min after blood is taken or I pass out.
hes cute
omg that fucking baby!
Hey Tommy! I read your comment first and thought that's what happened to Tommy and then realized it was you. Haha!
It sounds like you've been in your line of work just a bit too long...
I just hope other people don't think like you do if you ever get hurt and need blood to survive.
Besides, if done at a proper health facility with proper screening and educated personnel, the risks aren't as great as you make them out to be.
awwawaaaaWAAAWAAAWAAAAAaawaaawaaa
