“I hate doctors”
So today I had a doctor’s appt to prep for college. No big deal really, but I’ve always had this thing about doctors. Namely, I hate them. I just get really really nervous and uptight and worried and whatever else. I think this stems from when I was young and spending a few days in the hospital with a somewhat traumatic experience….it’s not not my favorite thing to do.
So today, I was dealing pretty well. Only a little nervous, just ready to get it over with. So I fill out all the paperwork, they call me into the room, and proceed to leave me sitting in there for probably 15 minutes. All by myself. I was very lonely and spent this time thinking about the exam that would proceed and worked myself up even more.
Finally the doctor comes in and she’s this really nice lady and everything. Really nice. I was immediately a bit more at ease. But still nervous. So she’s listening to my heart and makes a comment “your heart’s just racing, huh?” I just rolled my eyes.
“I kinda hate doctors.”
Yes, I said this to the doctor. She just laughed. I’m sure she gets this all the time and everything, but it was quite unlike me to say something like that.
End of story is, I’m healthy, yay. And that’s over with.
