For me, this is the injection of anesthesia at my latest consultation at the dentist, it was so painful that i screamed to him. Anesthesia is rarely a time of pleasure, but damn, it has never been so painful.

I stabbed myself in that soft spot on the hand, between the thumb and the finger you point with. That wasn't the painful part. I had to get stitches, they said the anesthesia injection would hurt as much as just having the stitches, so I agreed to do it without any anesthesia/painkiller or whatever you call those injections to numb the area.

That is the worst pain I've ever felt and I had to feel it twice, because as soon as I left the hospital, I let the hand hang down my side and the blood rushing there caused the stitch to loosen and blood to run out, so I went back inside and they grabbed both ends of the knot on the stitch with pliers and pulled to tighten them. That hurt so much that I actually made a little girly yelp that I've never heard myself make before or after.

Maybe I'm a wuss?

The anesthesia does hurt quite a bit, probably that bad. But what they neglected to mention, the pain is only about 5 seconds. Sounds like you had more than 5 seconds of pain.

I will never understand why people try to talk us out of anaesthesia.

Happened to me once re: teeth. Never again.
