10 Thoughts Of A Nervous Person Going To The Doctors

In This Article:

Being a nervous person can lead to many different unwanted awkward situations. Being at the doctor's office can be one of those awkward situations.

When's my birthday?

Okay, okay. All I have to do is walk up to the receptionist and state my birthday. "Hello, birthday?" Wot. Uhhhhhhhhh, what is a birthday?

Is this the right weight?

Looking at the scale and wonder "Is that right?" or "Is that an okay weight?"

Getting a feel of what your nurse/doctor is like

Soooooo... Are you a cool doctor or one who is really strict to the book? I really need to know whether or not I can relax or question everything I have ever done to my body.

Objects within the doctors office

I never felt the need to mess with unknown objects until sat in the doctor's office alone. Yet, I have always been told as a child that I cannot touch anything. Which makes it more irresistible.

BIG WORDS

Giphy

Okay, okay. Calm down there Mr. Vocab. I need you to relax with them big words and dumb it down to a first-grade level. Now, what does this stethoscope do?

Getting undressed

Getting undress. In an unknown area. I believe that is pretty self explanatory.

Questions. Questions. Questions.

I wasn't ready for all the trick questions. Don't be asking me questions about what my diet is because I have no clue. I eat broccoli...once.

The constant thinking of everything that is wrong with your body

So, I have been having this strange pain in my side. It always seems to happen when I exercise...Oh, it's because I'm out of shape. Well then.

Should I or should I not joke?

Giphy

If I joke, I expect you to laugh or this whole entire appointment will ruin me for the rest of the day. My trip back home will be me shaming myself for trying to make a joke about dinosaurs.

When they leave you alone in the room.

Should I be on my phone? What if they walk in with me being on my phone? I feel that it is rude for me to on my phone when you walk it. Or would it be creepy that I am sitting here patiently waiting for you?

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
