I suffer from severe anxiety and become very anxious when I have to go see my doctor, end up telling him that everything is fine just to avoid conversation and getting upset. Any suggestions for me? A lot of the time I do want to talk but feel anxious about it.

Thank you for your reply. I actually have notebooks filled with journaling and lists (I make lists for *everything *) and never thought about this. Thank you so much!

I understand. I had an offer to take a higher paying job with better benefits but my crippling anxiety made me turn it down. Fear of change, fear of a new job, fear of being around new people. It's tough...I wish you the best of luck and hope you find the strength to speak to your doctor.
