Are you afraid of seeing the Doctor or Dentist?
May do not go to get treatment simply because they have such a great fear of what 'could' happen to them.
Do you know someone like this?
There are plenty people who are afraid to go to the dentist because they think they're going to have a lot of pain. There are several celebrities that don't have good teeth and they say they don't want to go to the dentist because they're too scared, I heard that some doctors give them some kind of medication before to start so they will be calm.
I was never really afraid of going to the dentist until I had to get 2 of my wisdom teeth pulled. I was scared to death. :o Not of the dentist, but of the injections of numbing medication they had to shoot into my gums around my teeth.
I was never afraid to see my doctor either. All the tests and stuff they run at my yearly physicals never bothered me at all. I was scared of the surgeon when I had my surgery done. You know you always hear about some of these bad cases of what they leave in you and stuff like that. So I was a little bit afraid of the surgery procedure, but that's only because I was going to be asleep and wasn't going to know what was going on around me.
