I've been putting it off because I can't stand sitting int he waiting room, and then your name is called up and everyone else stares at you, God I HATE that!!
I know exactly what you mean. I'm having to visit my GP pretty regularly at the moment, and every time I go I get very anxious and worked up in advance - partly because of the waiting room situation you've described and partly because I don't always get on with my doctor the best. I absolutely hate going too, so can appreciate how hard that must have been for you.

Well done for taking that step and finding the courage! Hope that the meds help.
