I Am Just Saying

I remember when I was young, my mother would prick my finger when I got sick to get the "bad" blood out.

The dark blood proved the sickness was leaving my body. For some odd reason, it worked.

I remember crying. Hahahaha

they bled people for supposedly that reason in the seventeenth century too, at least in England and probably all through Europe too, who knows how it was in America..?

But am not sure the idea was to get you to cry therefore get that catharsis effect so u feel better...that's so weird but who the hell knows?

Yeah. My grandma would take me to do chinese herbal medicine and they'd prick a bunch of different parts of my hand and they'd do cupping and it would leave hella marks. Or they'd rub the inside of your arm super hard and it would hurt a fuck ton.😂
