After months of knowing my teeth have issues and dealing with pain coming and going, I have finally made a dentist appointment. And I'm terrified. I have avoided the dentist for over 10 years (probably more) because of anxiety. And I can't even pinpoint exactly what about the dentist makes me so scared. 

But I am proud I finally made an appointment. I just burst into tears the moment I hung up the phone. Phone calls also give me anxiety so it was a double whammy. But that part is over, at least.

I just wish simple things like this were a bit easier. It feels so frustrating when I struggle so much with things that other people can breeze through without any issues.
