Have you ever been scared of seeing a doctor or dentist cause of what they'll find and you've PUT IT OFF??





You may be surprised to hear that there's quite a large population of people who are actually afraid of the "unknown" whenever they see a doctor for their health or dentist for their oral health.

Whenever someone has an issue, they know something is wrong but they are afraid to get help for it too...not just because of the costs but because of what they'll find when they tell them the possible bad news..particularly if it's CANCER..but what makes it worse is that they will PUT IT OFF and rather NOT know what's wrong with them rather than knowing what it is..

Are you one of those people?.

No. Even if something is wrong, I'd rather know about it so I can be prepared.

Given that I haven't seen a dentist in a while, I am scared what they'll find (and I can expect that they might mind) although it's not the reason I haven't seen one. Before it was always just not having the time, now my regular dentist isn't around due to the COVID scare and/or lockdowns.

I put off the doctor because I hate bloodwork. Also I'm not sure that he's particularly competent, but I've been too lazy and, I suppose, I'm worried that a new one will be just as bad as the old.

I'm scared to find out but access is why I don't go, not fear.

I go to the doctor when there is a problem (usually once every few years), but I don't get a yearly physical.

I do however go to the dentist every 6 months for a cleaning due to fear of loosing all of my teeth.

It's more better for my mental health to go to a doctor if I feel something is wrong. Sure I've been afraid of what the problem might be but not enough to put me off. I even went to get my ears flushed the other week as I was more or less deaf in both ears. I was certain it was earwax and it turns out it was. The problem was fixed in less than five minutes.

lol no.

And my electronic toothbrush I got from CVS for $20 is amazing! Its Oral B.

Im talking about... if you brush with it in a lazy fashion... it STILL cleans 10x better than brushing with a regular toothbrush and putting a lot of work into the angles, and getting all sides.

Its so good that I got one for the whole family that same week. I cannot talk it up enough.

No, I have relatively good faith in preventative care...

My dad, on the other hand, DEFINITELY avoids doctors incase they find anything
