A good tip!

During unpleasent procedures eg dental I have found it helpful to go to a "happy place" eg sunbathing or a scenario eg photographing, directing or acting in a film (porn or a nude scene from a film I like) or a real-life memory. It helps to have mentally "rehearsed" the scenario a few times so that you can quickly return the fantasy/happy place during stabs of pain.
