Hi, having a massive wobble at the moment to put it mildly and just need a bit of a hand hold if that's ok?
Diagnosed with OCD and anxiety a few years ago after the birth of my daughter and seem to have cycles of extreme phobias/anxiety/obsessive thoughts.
My most recent is regarding my teeth, I'd seen my old dentist who told me I had two cracked teeth and needed v. expensive veneers put on or risk losing them. I decided to go nhs instead and got a new dentist, in the meantime I've been obsessively checking my teeth, too terrified to eat or drink and have lost over half a stone in the space of a week. I went to new dentist today who just replaced one of the temporary fillings and told me to come back in 6 months.
I think he's left a temporary filling still in one tooth which is terrifying me in case anything happens to it but also the new filling is right at the back of my mouth, behind my back tooth and when I rinsed in the dentist a couple of large chunks came out (he said they were the old filling)
I'm now worrying myself sick that the new filling has fallen out and keep checking it with my tongue and have booked another appointment for Thursday.
Feel so embarassed asking if he's left the temp in and to check the new filling.
I just can't stop feeling anxious, I feel at my wits end with it all.
