Have you tried desensitization? Could you prick yourself with a med-lance? Even though you could feel weird doing it at home by yourself, you might feel more in control if it's just you doing it. Then being analytical and curious about your response might make it go away.

Although you suggestion did sound strange initially, desensitization might be a good way to get over it. I’ll have to considering trying that as an option.
