Anyone scared, full on anxiety from dentist?

[cassandra]

I am so scared of the dentist. And I really need to go. Is there any kind of anxiety medication you think that will make me calm enough to lay still in the dentist chair? I jump around and the dentists are scared to hurt me further, but I cant control it. I am just that scared. I wish they would make me sleep so they could work in peace, but the next best thing would be to find pills that can knock me out, but not to the point I actually sleep in case I am told instructions. Valium and Sobril aren't really working. So what else? Any advice? I am also going to a specialist counselor for people like me, but that won't start yet. Waiting line. But since I have pain, the dentist wants to start her work on me.

I always take what ever benzo i have on hand maybe a opiate. But usually valium, and focus on my breathing while in that godforsaken chair.

Absolutely, I can't stand someone poking sh*t into my teeth and gums. I always ask for the gas and a good 10 mins to get nice and fished out.

SleepyMonkey, I get so anxious at the dentist they look at me like I am a freak!!  Hate it!  Lorazepam 2mg x 2 should work for you! Just make sure you have someone to drive you home!  I wish they could just knock us out like when you have your wisdom teeth out!!!  And the Nitro really helps too...do a practice run at home with the meds to see what your tolerance is to be on the safe side! I had an awesome dentist who used to give me Nitro even when he cleaned my teeth! I swear I have almost wanted to punch a couple of those arrogant assistants who don't understand our fears??? Good luck sweetie! I do UNDERSTAND!
