We did talk about the anxiety. And he agreed that I had cause to be anxious. And that there wasn't much I could to affect that cause. And he wouldn't give me any *better* coping techniques - he just didn't like mine. Or, to be fair, he was pointing out what mine was, and pointing out that other people handle it differently (see, I'm getting angry again!!!)
I hate the dentist, too. And they should figure out when we are saying "I'm doing better but not perfectly" that the response should be "I can see you are doing better."
Thanks, GG.
