OK so I had to get up bright and early this morning for a doctor's appointment. Waaay too early for having a day off school and work where I could have easily slept in. But you gotta do what you gotta do, right?
So I am waiting in the well, waiting room. And I had finished my exam and was now waiting to get my blood drawn to finalize the doctor's visit.
Little background: I cannot, CANNOT stand getting my blood drawn. I have anxiety. And then I begin to feel nauseous. Then I blackout and have fainted before. It's not a fun experience for me. But today it actually went well and I think it was because of the music they were playing in the office.
Usually when I am waiting I am stuck in my thoughts with what is about to happen and what is going to come out of me and yada yada blah blah. But today I had a distraction and therefore, I didnt have anxiety or a profusice sweat-episode. No blackouts and no fainting. The soothing music seriously helped. I SWEAR BY IT!
So thanks old-person doctor music, you saved me a mild heart-attack this morning :)
XOXO
Lauren

I used to be the same way. I don't look anymore. Now, I have to get over MRI machines.
