Well the doctor says its generalized anxiety I say its stress but it only started 5yrs ago when all the dental stuff came up,it clearly won't be going anytime soon wish I could keep busy.
Yes, GAD can be triggered by one thing initially and then affect other areas of your life. Maybe therapy of some kind would really help? Why do you feel that you can't keep busy? ?
Hi, I felt sure I had replied to this comment you sent, I really think I did but it was on another journal, maybe Anxious76's?I don't think therapy would help just need things to hurry up,I just have nothing to occupy me so lots of sitting+waiting (literally).
Well done and congrats!. So happy it went well, you have been waiting and worrying about this for so long! This are great news. Glad to hear you feel confident and ready to go through it for one more tome. You must feel so relieved.
The wine-part was very funny
Take care and recover soon
Well done/congrats glad it wasn't nearly as bad as you'd imagined. Did you have it done in a local surgery then rather than a hospital? Its just here in the the uk pretty sure any sedation has to be done in a hospital. Wow your mind is already thinking of tucking into a big steak (perhaps not quite yet tho) lol what's the next part you have to get done?
I am SO incredibly happy and relieved for you that your appointment went fantastic and the Sedation was a hit! Congratulations to you, I knew you could do it! ?
I've never had the option its been G/A (twice so far)+prob will be for the next ones,they've said 2 more at least,so don't even feel half way through yet. Oh your a brit how long have you lived overseas? Is that it then 1 more op+your done?
Have you asked to be referred to a sedation clinic? I know some private practices offer it as well. I must read your journal to find out what's been happening with your story. Yes! And very proud to be well I lived in the past ten years I've lived in Calgary, Alberta, Winchester, California, back to England for a while and now we live in Alberta again. My husband in duel American/Canadian and his job involves moving.
Well, I have an implant and crown on my back teeth but I'm not in any rush, it's been 6 months of dental work, I think I'll probably take a break for a bit.
No moving now would be complicated if I did it would be to another hospital,can't afford to go private. Wow I'd love to go to Canada it must be lovely+scenic. Yes have a well deserved break if your in no hurry.
Thanks so much, it means a lot to me to have your support. Sedation was fantastic! ?
Sedation is amazing, I won’t hesitate to use it or have any major work done without it.
