Are IUD insertions as painful as I see folks saying they are?

My doc is recommending I get one (Mirena specifically). I'm not averse to it - but I'm really scared about the potential pain. I can deal with cramps and such but like... I had to get a vulvar abscess drained earlier this year and that pain + the lidocaine shots were solid 11/10 so I'm really not excited at the thought of more intense pain

Hence why I wanted to ask you folks, I don't know anyone off the top of my head who's had one done, and I'm worried that I'm just scaring myself reading other folks' testimonies off of Ye Olde Google. Is it as painful as folks are saying??

(if this doesn't fit rule 8 please let me know! i'm not trying to ask for medical advice)
