Hi all,
As you may know, I was petrified about going to the dentist and having to have a crown. I have cancelled 3 times and was due to go today. Yesterday, I had headaches, neckache, sweating etc. You name it, I had it.
I was determing not to cancel this time, but was debating whether to take a diazapam or not before I went.
Well today..... Off I went to the dentist a nervous wreck, I NEVER took a diazapam. Told him I was anxious, hands sweating, couldnt swallow, was trying to breathe.
I decided I would work hard on my breathing, so I did along with telling myself to relax and I visualised the sea and the waves on the beach.
I was totally calm after a few minutes, didnt feel a thing and Im back home now.:D
Thank you all for your support.
Feel free to PM me, if you want to talk.

Keep focused, keep positive.
