Conquered Fear

[kytynpet]

Sat in the dentist chair today. And cried. While this is not an unusual happening, i didn't run out of their screaming (well, i couldn't because my mouth was full of guaze). But the big thing . . . .i'm going to go back! Voluntarily

Well done! Overcoming this fear - or acting despite it - is difficult but so important! I hope your dentist uses the newer root canal procedures: the last one I had didn't hurt during or after (didn't even need advil afterward).

Good luck/

Good job! Don't you feel proud of yourself now?

That, in itself, is a miracle. I have a lot of work to be done . . .years of fears to overcome and now pay for (literally and figuratively).

Way to go!! I'm proud of ya...and know how hard it is.

Know why I know? I didn't go for 15 years. And just today sat for the drilling out of two teeth so I can get crowns put in. I came "this close" to bolting when he explained what he was going to do!

And now I think it's time for another vicodan!

Yay!!! Good for you! And since you have faced this fear, you are now more able to face down any other fears! You can do it!
