You're a human animal, your body is participating from your slight future and making decisions you're unaware of from a second+ in your past. It's a dance of information where the only portion that matters is the consciousness that you believe yourself to be... kind of like being your own parent. Self talk has been recommended "I'm not concerned by - - -" "I'm aware of - - -, so - - -" etc

From someone who has had a bunch of surgeries, a lot of people have a fear of hospitals and surgeries. I spent 7 months in the hospital after an industrial accident and spinal cord injury.

Maybe a therapist can get you over the fears if they are all consuming. It’s pretty critical that you do because we all have to be proactive with our healthcare. You don’t want medical molehills turning into mountains because you didn’t go for routine checkups, screenings or when you are feeling sick.

I tell everyone that if you are undergoing anesthesia for a procedure, make sure you tell the anesthesiologist that you are anxious, or stressed out, nauseous, whatever. His/her job is to make you as comfortable as possible and in pre op. They have the most amazing medications.lol

It does depend on how often you’ve been taken advantage of but, then, it’s also a part of the experience of life. When you get to a certain age, you understand that almost everything is about the money. It’s up to you to filter what is worth it and what is not. It didn’t used to be that way. Older generations didn’t need contracts. Their word was good enough. Sadly, that is not the case anymore.
