Appointment anxiety
Hi I have an appointment tomorrow dentist and I'm so anxious I dislike making any appointments or driving to them and not know what will happen then and possible app in the future. I'm just overall nervous and I keep over thinking about possibilites, I'm new to this adulting stuff so making appointments, driving plus my anxiety is a big no I usually avoid it which is not good I realize but my anxiety gets in the way of everything it sucks I just dont know what to do to help not feel so anxious over this stuff and be calm about appointment and driving overall adulting very nervous.

Heyah!
Remember you only have one moment at a time in life. Choose to smile in it.😁
I know anxiety can be overwhelming but I got over it and so can you.😊
Take some time to properly prepare for your dentist appointment. Then go do something fun. When your mind goes back to the appointment don't fight it.
Just smile and say aloud I'm safe and think about the fact that you are safely seated or standing wherever you are. Then continue with your activity.
That helped me a lot. It took some time and showing myself love and patience, but it worked.😊😊
