38 and I've got a GP appointment next Thursday and I am absolutely terrified I'm going to walk in there and forget everything. Every single thing. Because that is what happens. I stand in that room and my brain just... empties. I spent twenty minutes last week trying to describe the anxiety to my husband and even then I couldn't quite get it right, so the idea of explaining it to a GP in ten minutes while she's clicking her mouse is genuinely stressing me out more than the symptoms themselves. So I've started writing it down. Properly. Not just a list, more like a little diary for this week, sleep and how I woke up and what time and what the mood was like the next day. Last night I was wide awake at ten past three, heart going, no reason, just... awake and weird. Wrote it down this morning before I forgot. That's four nights out of seven now. I'm also trying to eat something proper before I leave the house because I read somewhere that crashing blood sugar doesn't help any of this and honestly the mornings where I've had eggs or something I do feel slightly less unhinged by 10am. Might be nothing. Writing that down too. Has anyone else done this, the notes thing, before seeing their GP? I just want to walk in with something I can hand over if the words stop coming. I'm 38 so I already half expect to be told I'm too young and it's just stress. Would really love to know if anyone got taken seriously at this age x
