I'm trying to think of that TV show... British... that featured a blood-phobic doctor in Cornwall... great show... very funny in a dry kinda way.

One thing that does help me when I start to feel fragile (looking at a gory injury) is imagining the injury as a schematic diagram... with labels etc. That was one thing I really would have loved to have been: an anatomical artist for text books... perfect combination of my love of art and science!
