Big Baby

I'm always very nervous, too Even if it is nothing to be afraid of. I just had one yesterday, but I went after delaying it three weeks ago... I wanted to ask a question,a very important one, but freaked out, and needed time to pull myself together. I know that doctors don't eat human, just had some very bad experience, and it's hard to hear something that I don't want. In the end I always go though. Hope everything went well on your appointment.

I have gotten to the point that doctors don't phase me anymore. I go in and my blood pressure is running normal or a bit below. I look at it in the respect that doctors are human and by getting nervous about seeing them is giving them more power than they deserve. Sure they went to school for a long time to get the education to put them in a position of being able to diagnose problems and help a person deal with them...but they still are humans. By getting nervous you are giving the doctor more power than he really deserves. Also by getting nervous you tend to forget things that you might want to discuss with him. I used to be like you and get nervous about seeing the doctor. I would be a total nervous wreck before I saw them and I would forget half of what I wanted to tell them. I finally got over that when I saw one of the doctors in my doctor's complex trip over a rock and do a wonderful prat fall! I suddenly realized that they weren't any better than I was, and that they did stupid things and the only difference is that they spent a LOT of money to get their degree. Since that day I haven't had any problems with being nervous in the doctor's office.
