This is extremely embarrassing. I've been dealing with unexplainable dental anxiety for the past 7 years. To the point that there are times ( a lot of times) where I feel just anxious brushing my teeth, and skip it all together. I can't even look at my own teeth.
Ive gotten to a point where I want to repair all the damage I've caused but I'm also nervous doing so.
I've had a tooth chip just from brushing, and now I'm worried of that happening again.
I haven't been to the dentist for 3 years and it's been harder to go since covid. I'm currently stationed in Germany, and my options are limited.
I'm sure I have a few cavities and gingivitis.
I just want to be able to smile and not worry. I don't want to worry about bad breath (although at this point I can't tell if I even have it or not. Let alone, if brushing will be enough to fix it if I do)

I guess I'm just looking for advice and how to go about taking care of my teeth if I'm worried about brushing chipping them.
