You're not alone! I am 15 and I did the ritual at new year's eve this year. For this kind of thing, you can only be too young mentally. As soon as you're sure you're ready, you can do it. About the blood, if it's the pain you're worried about, try a razor- start with the edge of the blade at the edge of your finger, and drag if off: it won't be too deep. If it's the blood, you can even try some of the breathing excersises presented on jos to relax. As a final resort, you can try an astral temple, but you will need some practice for the trance state, etc.. Good luck!
