how does a person get past the fears of being 'mocked' by doctors?? as in, so they can go back to doctors in general again.
i'm literally terrified of mentioning 'certain things' to any doctor, total fear of being mocked or belittled -> as in, 'that's not a real issue/concern' or 'you need to do better' or the look that conveys they don't believe you or what you have said, or you should be doing what everyone else is / be up at 'that' level or just lumping you in with all the rest instead of treating the individual! i've had this happen on more than one occasion and it kinda haunts me. now that i kinda need to, i'm not sure i can get past it or even bury it enough for the time being. and this & my physical concerns are basically crushing me in the middle as they collide.......... |

I wish I knew the answer to this. I've had some, shall we say, "unfortunate" experiences with doctors as well. I guess one simply has to do what one has to do & hope for the best.
At the moment I don't have a need to see any doctors (except my pdoc.) But at this stage in my life it's no doubt just a matter of time. And when I do, there are out-of-the-ordinary things that are going to be obvious to them. So I do wonder, from time-to-time, how that's going to go. But, there again, there's nothing I can do about it (or perhaps I should say there's nothing I'm willing to do about it.) So it simply will be what it will be. I'll just have to suck it up & do what I have to do. The good thing is, I guess, I've had a lot of experience sucking it up & doing what needs to be done. So I'm used to it. |
