Hi Davit: Sounds like you'll be going through some stress for sure. Glad to hear you will have someone to be with you, driving too. If you think of my support, remember it's the breathing that counts...lol. That's the technique I use the most as you might know. I wish you the very best success. It's the anticipatory anxiety that's happening I think. I get like that too when an event is in the future and I have too much time to think about it. I had surgery last summer and that's when I started to read this site to help me with some anxiety. What I try and do is to visualize the happy outcome and how this is all worth it. Let us know how you are and you know we support you and will be thinking of you.
Hi Red: Sounds like you have a plan with your husband there waiting for you. Let us know how you are and how it goes.
Oh I have to go for a consultation first. You know show them the colour of my money first. Show them I'm not backing out. Then I have to go back. So I get to build the stress first. It is a ways away so I'm fine yet. Some one will go with me. Not sure who yet.
Sorry to hear about the dentist. That is a real tough one to get through. I guess if you can through that and I can get through the jury duty selection. My partner will be going with me to wait in the jury lounge. I will have to go through the questioning alone when my name is called. I am not going to take the xanax it makes me to foggy in the head and I do not want to appear drugged in front of the judge/attorneys/or the prosecutor. I need to be clear headed. Gees who's on trial any way me or the defendant. I guess I need to keep telling myself I am not the one on trial. I sure hope I am not selected to be a juror on a trial. Then I could be tied up in it for a long while. Anyway I will be thinking of you at the dentist office. Remember you will not be alone I will be their with you in spirit. Is someone going to drive you home that day? When is your appointment?
Make sure you post and let us know how you are doing and that you got home ok. Promise!!
This is one of those situations where you just take the xanax and do it. Is your partner or someone going to be there with you? You know the xanax will work so once you decide to do that then the waiting gets easier. I know this is just a temporary thing and you will go back to being the Red we all know and love the day after. We will be there with you. When it gets bad think of me. I have to get 14 teeth pulled out all at once and I'm terrified. But shortly after I enter the office, that day will become yesterday and only a memory of another accomplishment. Keep writing, it will help. I'm just going to take some valium and go blotto and do it. After all it's only once.
I am getting closer to my jury duty date which is this coming Monday. I am wondering how I am going to deal with not be able to just get up and run out of the court house when I can't take being there any more. This is going to take a lot of self control on my part. When I start feeling trapped in a situation my mind starts screaming I got to get out of here. This is going to be a all day affair not just a one hour affair. This is going to be a major test of my will power. As the date is getting closer I find myself feeling anxious and sick. I really don't want to do this and I have no choice.
