to be fair, i tend to be a little too obsessive about making certain decisions, but when it comes to healthcare professionals the effort is worth it. i spent forever looking at pictures of therapists and GPs before i tried to schedule an appointment with either because the only thing i hate more than taking care of myself is talking to strangers about how i should be taking care of myself! (had to be a youngish woman because i am inherently mistrustful of both men and the elderly. sorry!) i was as picky as i wanted to be and found both a therapist and a GP that are the perfect balance of bossy and kind and i feel good when i see them instead of terrible. it's nice!

Drs/medical professionals have seen it allll u donβt need to try present a certain image of yourself to avoid judgement. They also donβt have moral superiority over you so if they do judge you, so what, itβs no different to some random doing the same. (Also there are plenty who will be more understanding so if itβs poss u could try find another if u donβt feel respected)
Also this extends to not avoiding appointments because you havenβt listened to their instructions (eg do sleep hygiene, flossing, exercises). They need to know!
You two should be a team with the same goal, so if you have different priorities re your health, or if there are barriers to improving your health, itβs important and valuable to talk it through together.
