Dunno where you are, but I went to the Brunswick one on Albert St (accessible via Woolies carpark). They built it within the last 2 years or so, so it’s all very new and the rest area is really nice.
Edit: and your welcome haha! Everyone should do it if they are willing and able. I wouldn’t recommend it to someone who can’t for any reason lol. But yeah, it’s just a good experience, and a good thing to do. I want to do it more often anyway, my last one before this was a year ago. If you follow their before and after instructions (drinking water and eating what they tell you) it makes for a shorter, better experience! 😅
Hehe I’m literally a 10 min walk away or something lol it’s so cool. I like hanging out at the lil park opposite it, between Dangerfield and the Tarot/Massage joint 😅
Oh yeah they still do the in depth questionnaire, and a haemoglobin pinprick test.
And I’ve read that donating blood/plasma increases endorphins or something? It also makes the body make new blood. Also, apparently, it lessens the viscosity of your blood so reduces the risk of blood clots 🤷🏼♀️ I guess there’s also the feeling of doing something that’s just an altruistic, purely good deed, makes you feel good too knowing someone out there is benefitting from your donation 💜
