Hi
Last month I went to dentistry and had my first dental work after 13 years avoidance from dentistry , and next week I should go to begin my treatment process.
I hadn't gone to the dentist for 13 years due to my extreme fear of dentistry.
Now I see I have a problem which annoys me a lot; my doctor is a very relax,calm and kind person. There is no problem on behalf of him. And first visit He understood that I fear so much and Im stressed at dentistry.
So my problem? My problem is that
as I enter the office, because I'm so anxious and nervous, I become a shy, very very quiet and standoffish person, in fact all I said in the visit was " hi, how are you,thanks, ok,no , yes, thank you , buy"?
It annoys me so much that my nervousness and my anxiety makes me a quiet and shy person. I want to talk, but at dentistry I become somehow speechless.
I really want to communicate with my dentist, I want to tell him about my fears, to tell him what I experienced at dentistry in my childhood, why I fear, I want to talk about a subject but I can't.
When I'm quiet, the situation becomes soooo hard to start talking about s.th suddenly!!
You know why it annoys me? Because (I think) when I am quiet, I seem like a person who is trying to be relax, and doctor thinks if he start talking he will interupt me, so he won't talk to me! He leaves me alone with myself.
But in fact I want him to talk, to ask me question, i want myself to talk and communicate, but I can't!
What is you suggestion to me?What can I do to overcome this problem?does anyone have this problem?what do you?
I've gone to his office three times and he just knows that 1)I fear and 2)I'm so stressed, anxious and nervous at dentistry.
But i want to tell him about details. I have a terrible teeth condition and (due to the feeling of embarassment)I want to explain why I ignored my teeth, why I fear and ... i want to communicate.
Please please help me how to start talking to him?what are the sentences to start a conversation about details of my fear and terrible teeth condition?
How to tell him details?when to start talking? Starting conversation is hard for me.
I couldn't have a nice communication with him yet(although my dentist is very kind and calm).
And I appreciate if you tell me what is the best sentence to start the conversation?
