Vent and then let it go...

Not sure about anyone else but sometimes I just need to vent, including venting any frustrations, fears, hopes, worries, longings and anything else. Most of the time I don't want any advice or any responses. Just need a way to get it all out from within me.
So thought this thread could be for those sort of things. No one replys to you with words or anything. It's a place to let it all go. Just dump whatever it is you want to say and leave it here.
So yeah no replys please.

Woke up with a general ache in my mouth. Not hugely painful, more like a dull ache with with a dull throb in places. Also woke up with a headache. Thinking the headache is from the side effects of the contents of the numbing needles I had, the panadol and the "Happy gas". Yes I had that gas that made me feel weird, spaced out, yet I could vaguely hear the words that the dentist was a saying. That spaced out sensation bought back memories of childhood and the times I had it then. Felt like I had so many teeth out back then, due to over crowding.
Okay I chose to let all that fear go, the fear from childhood of every single visit to the dentist. In Jesus name, I pray. I don't want to carry the fear anymore.
Song now in my head "Let it go", "Let it go"

Sorry to hear that Shell, I hope you feel better soon, and same with you Mark.
Sick of feeling awful mentally 24/7. My GP just says speak to my Psychiatrist. I can't see him until March 1. It's hard. I'm in pain too.

Attempting to see the good things about this whole going to the dentist thing over the last 4 months.
She asked me how was my vitamin B levels? Apparently if you are low you may not be as calm and not handle stress well. So I started taking a vitamin B complex. Have been for about a month. I think I am more calm. So that is one good thing. Still felt scared but I did feel a little different.
The dentist issue led me to a lot of research. And I found out calcium needs Vitamin D to help carry it into the bones and teeth. So I had my vitamin D levels checked. And I was low. So that was another good thing to actually find out through this whole dentist issue. I can now work on getting much more sunshine and taking a supplement of vitamin D3. Also found out low levels of this may cause depression and anxiety in people. So that was interestin to know as well.
Another good thing.. I think I am used to the people at the dentist office now. Since I have been there so very much. They do not seem as scary as before. I am also familiar with the location that the office is in. I know where the toilets are, the lift, the car park area and a nice picnic table outside if I want to sit there for a while. I guess the familiarity of the place now helps with the fear of it all. Lessons it. So that is a good thing too.
Another good thing is that I have slowly learnt how to take care of my teeth better.

Need to let this go...
I always wanted lots of children and I absolutely adore sweet little babies.
Then I saw this tiny sweet little baby in their mother's arms at the checkout in Woolworths, just now. The baby was smaller then the average size newborn.
A longing deep inside of me ached to hold the little one. And my arms felt like empty and hollow. Almost like a baby should be there but wasn't. I sort of wanted to snatch the baby for my very own. As I write this, well that sounds awful to me. I would never do such a thing. The longing still remains.
I really want to be happy for this new mumma.

I am safe..
But I want this to end. This emotional pain, this aloneness, this hostility, this disunity
I feel bitter now, I hate that so much in me.
