you get 3 shots with this vaccine. the first and second are like a month apart and the 3rd is like 5 months after the second. they dont hurt hardly at all. really, they dont. i used to be so scared of shots to the point i would start crying. if you ever had a flu shot that is what it feels like. i had to get this done for my work as part of confined space training and being a first responder so i didnt mind at all, getting a free vaccine from a nasty thing like hepatitis who can complain about that! good luck dont worry

It's not bad, just take a deep slow breath (in through the nose and out through the mouth) as they inject and the shot will be over before your cleansing breath is! Good Luck!

NOT NEARLY AS MUCH AS IT HURTS TO GET HEPATITUS B!
Imagine the hottest crush you have in the room watching you get the shot and you have to be brave for them. It does not hurt at all, it's a shot in your muscle. It's nothing. Be happy you can afford it, and you are getting the shot, and not hepatitus b!!

Just don't think about it. The only time you really feel it is when they're injecting it in ya, not when they prick ya with it. It just feels like a pressure the whole time. Nothing to worry about. :)

It doesnt hurt
Go brag to people about how you can take your shots like theyre nothing so you feel like you have to live up to those standards (forced courage)
