"yeah I know you've been telling me you're in pain like every day bc of your cavity but here's a video of someone else who got their wisdom teeth removed and is panicking from the the anesthesia and ‘acting stupid’. I have greatly implied up to this point that I don't want you to get anesthesia or to not remove the teeth at all”
#they’re taking out four fucking teeth and im not even allowed to take them afterward.#do you honestly expect that they would give me the option of not being under anesthesia.#they won’t let someone I trust be in the room as it’s happening i don’t Want anesthesia.#idgaf if I say something stupid on anesthesia. im terrified of someone doing something to me that I won’t know about or remember#idk im not fucking blaming you that I Haven’t been to a dentist my whole life. were kinda Not Well Off#but you expect me to just Deal With It as my fucking tooth rots?#it could fucking kill me. the infection could spread to my brain and it could actually fucking kill me#and if they just take out all four Now I won’t have to worry abt it again Ever#it’s funny that when our cat was having teeth issues you expected me to deal wifh it pay#payment and all but when it comes to Me having teeth issues suddenly you want to have a say. fuck off#tooth trauma#words from the monarch

I am having A Time (And about to live one of my worst nightmares)
#my art#I am Terrified™#“I think this teeth is broke-” “FUCK YOU. GET SURGERY FOR 4 OTHER TEETH"#HHHHH#teeth stuff#not sure how to tag this bhffg#the way the dentist was so casual about it while I was straight up panicking was not fun#my mom keeps telling me not to stress so much about it but literally HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO NOT THINK ABOUT IT#crying crying crying screaming crying again etc#russian roulette of life said “repeatedly shoot this one person in particular ”#I'm very tired 🤙

Scheduled my first dentist appointment in years HOUGH
#im not scared of the dentist but i am terrified of the shame that comes alongside having numerous cavities#like my first dentist was passive aggressive as fuck and that shame really stuck with me#like yeah i didnt take care of my teeth becuase i was an unmedicated teenager with adhd failing school after their mom died#and you called me lazy when i didnt expect to live that long to deal with the consequences#wow this just became a vent#anyway at least im starting to fix it

#it should be noted that I tried distracting myself from wanting to be dead in a hole and no longer have teeth or shame or the horrors#by watching Grey’s Anatomy#because other people’s made up drama is better than whatever my brain is giving me right now#and I ended up watching an episode where a major character#has a dental abscess that gives her a bacterial heart infection and heart attack and all the complications that follow.#I would just like to say#fuck my life#I KNOW THIS IS FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS#I JUST#WANT TO ***#RATHER THAN EVER DEAL WITH TEETH EVER AGAIN IN MY LIFE#I’ll never forgive my mom and my old dentist and hygienists for being ‘kind’ but shaming me so much for so many years without ever once help#*helping me#what was I supposed to do with that?#I can’t hate myself into taking better care of my teeth#and it’s such a beast to overcome that I barely make a dent before something throws me off the bandwagon and I’m terrified to even feel that#I have a mouth all over again!!!#shh katie#there’s no way that one of my teeth at least will be savagely#*salvagable#it needed a root canal in 2021 there’s no way#but if I need teeth pulled I genuinely will spiral#it’s the ultimate shame#EVEN THOUGH PEOPLE IN OUR FAMILY HAVE HAD TO HAVE THAT DONE#even though my mom and sister have had tons of cavities!#it was never allowed for ME#I was supposed to be the PERFECT one#who never ever had any of the issues my older siblings or parents did#and it’s all taken as me not caring or being lazy or being stupid and uninformed and it’s NOT#I DON’T WANT TO LIVE LIKE THIS EITHER CAN NO ONE UNDERSTAND THAT

can’t go to the dentist without humming the damn little shop of horrors song
#bee posts nonsense#used to be terrified of the dentist as a kid and i still am for a completely different reason (social interaction)#fear of doctors as a kid is like “what if i have to get a shot :(“ and fear of doctors as an adult is like#“what if i fill out the forms weird and they burn me at the stake for it”

tw for vomit and tooth whump
Apparently your teeth are kinda easy to erode? If you've never heard of "mountain dew teeth" it's when you drink too much mountain dew and even if you brush teeth really well, your teeth just start wearing away.
Anyway, this can also happen if you have bad acid reflux, or if you vomit a lot. This is because your stomach acid is pretty acidic and will literally wear away your bones if it comes up too much. (mt dew is also pretty acidic, and more common)
So yeah. Does your whumpee get access to the right quality of food? (Different types of food can affect acid reflux a lot. Frequent vomiting is a whole other problem.) And the right quality of dental care?
#i'm actually a huge nerd about this#i had a dentist appointment recently and they absolutely terrify me so i had to learn everything i could about it before going#but one of the things i didn't learn until i was there was acid reflux!#which apparently i have. pretty bad. i didn't even know but my dentist took one look at my teeth and was like 'do you have digestive issues#so yeah. there's that#rainbow's whump#whump#whump writing#whumpee#rainbow's prompts#whump prompt#whump scenario#also listen istg i will post drabbles soon instead of uncoordinated thoughts#i actually have real edited oc content coming at some point! just gotta get brain energy to type it

Surgery update
Well it went well sort of... No complications and I'm on a fast mend. My only complaint is that one of my meds is giving me terrible insomnia and I hate it.
I have three more doses of this stuff and I honestly cannot wait to not need it! First I was dizzy then I was super tired and now I can't sleep!
Also my jaw is super sensitive and my baby is currently in the "slap your face for funsies" stage so yeah... that's been fun. Also they had pried my mouth open so wide that the corners are a fucking mess right now and I feel gross every time I eat because they crack.
Any who, all in all aside from the post op blues, I think everything went well and I'm hoping the bone graphing takes well and fast so I can get my implants.
#dental surgery sucks#thank god I was knocked the fuck out#lucky to have such a great dentist tbh#even though I am fucking terrified of the dentists#like something about having needles in my mouth freaks me out#personal dash stuff

Oddly enough I feel more comfy anxietyposting here instead of twitter so uh. I preface this with Yes I’m A Grown Adult but I am irrationally anxious about This :’)
#i'm 26 coming on 27 and not had my wisdom teeth pulled and every year that passes by the thought of it freaks me out#main reason is because they never gave me issues or pain and anytime i saw a dentist they said it's likely i don't need them pulled#but as i get older it's like. is this the year they're going to start giving me problems?? should i have just bit the bullet and got them#out when i was younger despite them not giving me issues?? which in itself is terrifying because#everyone i know who's got the procedure talks about how awful it is and how much pain you're in for weeks afterwards and it's like hhhhhh#i'd rather not go through that much pain if i don't have to yknow? but also *do* i know if i don't have to? what if by the time i find out i#need to get them out it's too late? i've heard the procedure is more risky if you do it at an older age (though dont know how true this is)#like i think about this an irrational amount despite my wisdom teeth not affecting my life at all :')#but yeah...sorry for bein anxious outta the blue here; i don't post here much but it's still in a lot of ways where im most comfy Rambling

Real talk: How do I let the fear of going into complete and total medical debt not stop me from getting the help I actually need?
#personal#Love everyone who is like 'Don't pay it when you get your bill!' and then I get sent to collections and fuck up my credit score etc. etc.#This is also with health insurance by the way but mine uh... sucks.#And this is me being serious by the way. I'm terrified I'm gonna go flat broke once I finally make the call to see a dentist.

ahhhhhh
tooth hurty
#i have a toothache and I am deathly terrified that it’s something that’s gonna warrant a root canal#i am fucking terrified of dental stuff and I haven’t been in a while so even though I take good care of my teeth I am. very spooked.#it might just be because I’m anxious and am clenching my jaw! it might! but now I can’t think about anything else.#it has been a very stressful week and my family is coming up tomorrow so if I do need to get it looked at I would really rather not have it#- done this weekend but. ah.#like. it’s such a small thing to be worried about but I’m worried that if it is something like… the dentist will say it’s my fault. which#- is so stupid to be worried about!#forgive me but I needed to talk about it somewhere cause I’m super anxious about it atm#vent

I do not like having to go to the DMV… I do not like it at all.
#pardon my insanity#this has been a week of facing things that I do not like#large and busy airports (kudos to CVG for getting me through TSA real fast and making that part nearly pain-free though)#all the *escalators* in said airport#(I get severe vertigo on escalators… I do not like them -especially going down)#(this was actually the first time I’ve managed to get on a downward escalator since before Covid lockdowns)#went to the dentist for something a little more invasive than a typical checkup less than two hours after getting home Monday…#…the dentist made the airport seem like a cake walk#(usually not fearful of the dentist… but that’s the first time I’ve had to have novocaine shot in my cheeks and that was weird)#and then the DMV was such a pain yesterday (and online instructions prior to were different than there so I had to leave and come back)#…DMV successfully made Monday’s dental procedure feel easy!#and now tomorrow I have to wrangle my cat who is terrified of the vet *back* there because five weeks and her ear infection won’t go away#and listen to her hyperventilate and try to dig her way out of the carrier the whole drive up (which scares the ever-loving crap out of me)#she does that on Gabapentin too -it’s that bad

okay i have survived the dentist with only one quick "trembling and crying uncontrollably" panic attack okayyy
#it's not even the actual dentist part i'm so terrified of#like the crunching or drilling etc is fine i can handle that#it's the fucking injections to numb the area that are so horrible#needles stabbing into my mouth is a fucking nightmare to me#i'm glad afterwards they wait a couple minutes for it to work#bc i need that time to fucking calm down lol#but now i'm ok and on my way home thank fuck
