[medical/mental health/AITA?] I got a call reminding me to get my teeth cleaned. But after the hospital and my endoscopy the idea of a bunch of people being in and around my mouth is giving me a panic attack. I told my mom that's why I didn't want to do the cleaning and she looked at me like I was crazy and was like "It's your mouth, I guess."

Thank you

Like, am I aware that it's kind of silly and sound weird and paranoid? Yes. But can I control what I have panic attacks over? No, no I cannot

And I don't want to have a panic attack and start crying while I'm in the chair

I just always feel like shit when my parents dismiss me like I'm overreacting
want a tour?
You're not the asshole. You are valid. Going to the dentist is incredibly stressful, and I can only imagine how much more stressful it would be after the hospital. <3

Why do I bother? Tried to explain myself and got a very snappy “no I get it, I understand” in response
