tw needles?
2 weeks ago I went to the dentist for the first time in about 6 years, and they were going to sort out my teeth (holes in them were giving me bad toothache). They were going to give me an injection but I flat out refused. Anything thin and sharp makes me feel nervous, and though some part of me knows needles aren't that bad, I'm terrified of them. The thought of having one in my mouth is worse than having one in my arm. So I asked for gas instead, and they told me they were going to arrange that.

Today I went for a check up about it, and I was told the following: "If you have general anaesthetic (gas) it will be more difficult to do the work, and you risk losing your front teeth entirely. If you have the injection they can be saved"

This absolutely terrifies me, and I don't know what to do. The gas sounds like a tempting option, but I feel like I may regret it in the future. My mum's letting me decide, but she was distraught when I said I was considering the gas, and when I told my friend she kinda shouted at me for considering it. My mum doesn't want me to have dentures, and though I can see the downside of it, this irrational fear's making me think it as the better option.
My dad's the same, and I don't want to make either upset, and I don't want to make the wrong choice.
I'm so scared, and I can't talk to anyone close to me about it. I just want to stay away from it all, I just want to curl up in a ball and forget today ever happened.

I miss my friend. I regret not saying goodbye. I'll never see them again. We're too far away. They probably forgot about me, so busy with their new life. I wish I could go back in time and at least say goodbye and that I'll miss them. I hate my ego.

It's not your ego that makes you miss them. When you stop talking to someone for a while, you start to realize how much you depend on them. Think about it! This happened with you and your friend clearly. Can you ring them? Skype them? Facebook them? There must be a way to contact them. It's none of my business where they went or why you won't see them again but I'm sore if you allow time one day the two of you will be reunited!

Nope No way to see them thanks to my stupid ego saying I didn't care. I wanted to scream that I did care

[AmnesiaUndead]

Just need to know that someone cares..

Mo, you are amazing. Alot of people love you and think about you. Please don't feel bad about yourself. Your an amazing individual and deserve the best the world has to offer. If you ever need someone to talk to remember that I'm here and so are a bunch of other people that care about you and want you to live life to the most.

My cousins are to far from me ALL BECAUSE OF A **** JOB
I WANT MY FAMILY BACK OMG
ITS BEEN TO LONG

[abxy]

I'm moving.
Practically to another country.
I might be moving all the way across the U.S. or just stay in this area.
I hardly have any friends and that'll just basically make me friendless.

I know I should be happy, I mean she's my sister and I should be there for her, but when you find out one night by accident that she's pregnant, and you cry every night straight for a week because you hope it's not true, and then she announces it to our sisters and family that's over, and everything goes wrong. I don't know what to do. I just feel like nothing's going to be the same anymore..

i am so scared for tomorrow. i have to dress up like a greek person and present in front of the whole class.. thing is, my group wants to make it funny. i'm VERY NERVOUs, i'm not funny at all in front of a huge crowd. [ lord help me they want to do the whip ]. i am so scared because when i did a presentation in front of my class last year, my throat got a knot in it and my voice was shaky, like i was going to cry. i'm so nervous, what if it happens again ?

I'm sorry you're dealing with this. Have you tried telling your group this? Maybe they can find something not-quite funny for you, or a smaller speaking role. Just remember that every other person in the room feels the exact same way about presenting, everyone has been or is super nervous too. If you mess up, no one will think any less of you at all c: I believe in you, you can get through this and then you'll feel so much better when it is finally done! Good luck <3[/center][/quote][/quote]

i would just like to say thank you so much. today's presentation was a success and i didn't stutter at all or mess up (: luckily my group talked most of the time ;; you made me more confident by saying this and i thought of what you said during the presentation so thank youuuuu <33

it's kind of silly but i've injured my back somehow and i won't know what the cause is until thursday.. i have scoliosis (both top and bottom curve with degrees in the low 30s) and i always feel like people think it's an excuse to not do physical activities. i can't walk around the house without pain, laying down and resting is all i can do. i feel pathetic; i don't want this to hold me back from stuff now, but i may have to, unfortunately. so far i've been told that there aren't braces for my type of scoliosis and frankly i'm scared to death about the idea of surgery but.. that's a last resort. //sigh

I really really miss my best friend. She's changed so much. I don't know why she seems to be mad at me. She approaches me while I walk with my friends and then she talks to my friends instead of me. She also looks at me over their shoulder while she's talking to them. Is she trying to make me jealous? I wish that people we're more honest and less manipulative.

Well, "L" and "A" begged me to come back and sit with them. I'm kind is surprised. They actually said that they missed me. Haha, that's something I don't hear a lot. I went to sit with
L during English and S moved. I guess that she didn't take my friends aferall. Me;1 S;0. The only problem that I have with sitting with them again is that I have to change my routine after I got used to other people.

I know that it seems odd, but I hate change. When my parents get a new couch or move around stuff in a room and redecorate and they're all happy. I can't stand any change. I don't know why. I don't like it and it usually sets off some sort if an anxiety attack.

This one girl who tells the world every secret she knows, guessed my crush while we were walking past him. I denies it, but I know that my face gave it away. I'm really afrAid that she'll tell him. Even if he doesn't reject me when he hears, I might lose interest in him if it's reciprocated. I think that he might already have heard her. He tried to say hi to me when he randomly walked into our classroom and I ignored him because I'm way too nervous to talk to him. I don't think that he took it personally, but he might have. I've a come a long way with being less anxious in the last year or two. I hope that she doesn't say anything and that he doesn't catch on when she says "oooh, (insert name). I know that my problems are really petty compared to other people's, but I'd still appreciate some comfort. I really miss my bestfriend, but I don't think that our friendship is repairable.
