Now this can change over time, but wondering when do you feel the most anxiety...
A .. before the appointment.. making it , thinking of who to contact, being nervous about the what ifs. etc etc.. waking up and getting there the day of. walking through the door..
B. In the chair... nervous about actual procedure, talking to dentist, staff, shame factor etc..
C. After ... what will happen after,? how will my healing go , will I have to call them to get in again. or with questions, will there be after affects or complications..
So right now.. for me it is C.. I may have slight anxiety before , along the way of not wanting to be a bother too much, or wondering how it will be like.. but as of now I've gained some pretty positive momentum and feeling fairly comfortable to contact them to make appointments or ask questions
In the chair.. most of the time.. I'm ok. once I get the local I know I will be good to go.. sometimes I brace for the pain but then walk out like what the heck happened that was easier than I ever imagined.. even if it wasn't easy . it was still managable and they proved they cared again. so the chair is not where I have the issue right now.
Its the healing.. how painful will it be,, will I sleep? will I eat? will the stiches fall out ? etc..
What about you? I'm curious....
