Do you donate blood?

Why/why not?
 
Never donated blood. I was told at a young age that I can't even donate and give blood. a couple of years ago I had 4 tubs of blood removed from me to do blood test and I just was very bad and fainted
 
Yes, I've donated several times. Most recent was earlier this year while I was searching for a truck.
 
I do and as often as I can. I just donated a couple of weeks ago.
 
I haven't. Mainly for the reason was because I almost passed out every time the nurse or a doctor drew blood. I thought about selling plasma. But seeing as I have that "problem", I couldn't go through with it.
 
I donated a few times, primarily to find out my blood type.. ?

It wasn't so bad, but I did keep feeling faint afterwards so they recommend that I not donate anymore, suggesting that some people just aren't cut out for it. I wasn't going to argue!
 
I have never donated but it's one of those things that I would love to do because it can help so many people. Unfortunately, blood tests are not something that I've extremely comfortable with so I doubt I would be good at handling this either.

Next week then :P
 
I never tried to donate blood. I am scared of needles and might faint if I do it.
