Jodi, just keep telling yourself that you have to get to the doctor because he/she is going to help take all this fear away. If you have used self-soothing methods in the past like a heating pad, relaxation tape, a certain book, music, etc. take it with you. I would call ahead and make sure that they are running on time too so that you can go right in. Repeat to yourself stuff like €œthese are just thoughts they can€™t hurt me€ and €œif I don€™t react to these thoughts they can€™t escalate€. Good luck and let us know how it goes. Rachele
