I booked an appointment with my surgery’s nurse for this morning. However, despite checking my three alarms were on last night - I managed to sleep through them all and woke up this morning 2 minutes after my appointment time. It’s likely that I overslept because I’m on sleeping medication to help me with my depression and anxiety.
I called the surgery and apologised and explained the situation. Understandably, the receptionist wasn’t happy not happy, but she was also very rude to me.
I feel terrible, guilty and quite emotional because I’ve never missed an appointment before, so this is very unlike me.
