38 and I've finally booked a GP appointment for next week and I am already panicking about it. Not about what she'll say. About the fact that the second I sit down in that room my brain will go completely blank and I'll come out having described literally nothing useful and she'll send me home with "have you tried sleep hygiene" and I'll want to cry in the car park. So I've started writing things down this week. Like actually logging what happens each night because otherwise I genuinely cannot tell you when it started or how often it happens. Three weeks ago I would have said "oh it's occasional" but looking at what I've written? It's been almost every single night since the beginning of the month. I wake up at around 3am, heart going, completely wired, and then I lie there for an hour or two catastrophising about things that don't even feel real in the morning. I'm going to take the notes in with me. Printed out. Because I know myself and I know I'll hand her a vague wave of my hand and say "yeah just a bit anxious I suppose" and that'll be that. Does anyone have advice on what to actually say? Like the specific words that make a GP take this seriously rather than just nod and move on x
