Hi Gina,
A few weeks ago my dog didn't come when I called him and I completely fell apart, sat on the floor bawling my eyes out wondering what am I doing, why am I acting like a crazy person but I was just so incredibly overwhelmed that I just broke down. I used to fight those moments but now I let them happen because after a real good sob I feel heaps better, it is a really good way to release stress. I think its fantastic that you went to the dentist, it doesn't matter that you cried when you were there, the point is you actually left your house and went there i think that is an accomplishment in itself so be proud of yourself. when you go to see the Oral Surgeon then that will be another accomplishment - look at the positives more. I've been trying to go to the dentist for the last three years and I can't bring myself to leave the house to go there! I'm going to be in for a real bill when I do go, need a few fillings!! Being in the same situation needing to go to the dentist I just see what you have done as a massive thing and I think you're a very strong person! :) Whether you believe it or not you are coping!
