Advice for first time contact lense wearer?

Well, on Tuesday I had an eye appointment and decided to try contacts for the first time and it took me about an hour to get both lenses in and another hour to get them out. I haven't actually put them in since Tuesday just because putting them in is sort of stressful for me just because touching my eyes sort of freaks me out. I know it doesn't hurt and that you're not really touching your eye, but I can't seem to stop my blinking reflex.

I have a follow-up appointment tomorrow so they can see how I've been doing with the contacts. Any advice besides sucking it up and practicing until the fear goes away or advice to get used to them faster?
