I'm a fair whack scared, I've had 2 traumatizing dental experiences

oops sorry chiro** not physio, i always mix the two up. @avant-garde glad it went okay!!
so fair to be scared, i'm hoping that the initial appt will run smoothly and perhaps creating that plan will help you feel a lil less scared in knowing whats coming up. it's tough tho hey, esp when you've had traumatising experiences in the past. got my fingers crossed that this fresh new dentist will lead to a fresh, positive/neutral experience.

I got a female dentist so that's good, they have tv screens on the ceiling
I've kicked dentists before when they didn't listen to me

omg tv on the ceiling is so good, my clinic has just a bright light in my face so i just end up closing my eyes @avant-garde and glad you got a female dentist too.
that sounds like a rough experience for sure, it's definitely uncomfy and hard not being heard while you're feeling vulnerable and scared.
i gotta hop off soon but i hope the appt goes okay!! night 💜
