Hello there
Second week of blogging in 2014 and im already slacking! haha. Liam has been back at playgroup this week and so ive had a few hours to myself (sorta).
I've been very good and sticking to my new years resolution, and this week i headed back to the dreaded dentist ... I have been taking it slow to try and get over this ever so silly phobia of mine. Next time liam will be having a checkup so i shall put on a brave face for him!
When your young you dont really think about being scared of things such as the dentist if you go every 6 months, or spiders etc. There are so many people in this world with extraordinary phobias and others which are really common. I was told i was being silly because i cried every time i walked into the dentist room for no reason whatsover, and to be honest it made me feel even worse. My phobia wasnt me being silly it was geniune.
When you have a child you dont just have to face your fears for yourself but you have a million more worries and fears for your child, and it has now got to a point where i think - i dont want liam to be like me and i don't want him to be scared of anything. So i put on my brave mummy face and show him there is nothing to be scared of.
I am not saying that you have to have a child to put on a brave face, just something will automatically click in your brain and say IM READY, I CAN DO THIS. For me - that was having liam. It could be wanting to start a new job or just trying to be more confident, and doing it for yourself.
You see all these people on tv or in the news who are afraid of things you would never think of, like ketchup or spoons and it is so easy to start laughing at them and think "ahh thats a silly phobia!" No phobia is too silly or stupid and never let anyone put you down about a phobia you may have.
Make sure you are ready and just be proud of yourself for facing your fear in the first place....
Even if its just like me and the dentist, 2 Years ago i wouldn't even set foot in a dentist, 3 weeks ago i walked in crying and 2 Days ago i actually sat in the dentist chair and had them blow air and water onto my gums. As long as everything goes at YOUR pace YOU are in control.
What is your biggest phobia?? Or one you are facing right now?
Until next time.....
