Hello all! I am new here, but I figured since I'm not comfortable talking about this particular problem with other people, this would be a good place to start..
To start it off, I've always had teeth problems, just because my parents were quite awful when it came to stuff like that, growing up, I was never told how to brush, I had never been to a dentist until I was around 15? I had my first appointment, and god was I horrified, they came to the conclusion that they had to extract quite a bit of my teeth, mainly my molars that were bad, (they were able to save my front teeth), anyways fast forward to this day, I am living with more responsible people, (my aunt and uncle). The dentist that I have is very inconsistent, (doesn't pick up calls, forgets appointments etc.) But I have had quite a bit of work done, all I need now is to I think have my wisdom teeth extracted, a filling, and a root canal, and they can get my partial process started.
Just the problem is, I'm only 17 and already have ALL of these problems, and it really sucks. I just cannot get out of this rut of depression I am in, it's all because I didn't do what I was supposed to. Are there other people in my situation? I just feel so ashamed and embarassed to have these problems, and to top it all off, I'm going to be turning 18 extremely soon. I'm just lost and am just having periods of extreme depression/anxiety and intense derealization. This is just awful.
