#i'm anxious about wasting my time by having my experiences ignored bc they percieve me to be a woman

[altruistic-meme]

me: i have anxiety about doctors

my mom: everyone has anxiety about doctors

me: no, they actually don't

my mom: okay no they probably don't, but i don't like going to the doctor either

me:

me: you know that's not the same, right? like you do understand that this is not the issue i'm having?

#mom. mother. please. #i am not afraid of going to the doctor. i don't care about getting needed shots or whatever. #i'm anxious about wasting my time by having my experiences ignored bc they percieve me to be a woman #as well as having diagnosed anxiety meaning that my concerns will be brushed off. AGAIN. #and then having to do all of this shit over and over. #like. #please tell me you understand that going to a doctors office is not why i'm so anxious about this. #shh ac #seriously shut up
