Of course, you are supposed to use VATS to prevent this from happening in the first place. While this never feels great, it can be particularly bad in New Vegas because of the way certain enemies like to get very close to you, making you have to make exaggerated head movements to aim correctly, which isn't very comfortable or practical.
