Decided. You gotta take care of you

My mouth is a mess. Theres a big gap between my molars. Chewing probably improperly for years. Will needs veneers to lengthen my front teeth so it looks normal. So I don't look weird. Mouth rebuild. Taking out a loan. I cannot live like this with plastic in my mouth.

I want to chew, smile, like a normal person. My family does not support me and are yelling at me like I'm an idiot. No mattwr how I try to explain MY JAW POPPED OUT OF THE SOCKET. My nut sister told me I just need a pillow.

I couldn't imagine telling another human how to handle their medical care. I'm not sharing im getting it fixed. I will be pilloried.

And I was pretty scared also. All of my blood work came back negative which is good but it doesn't explain the health problems I have been having so,,,, have to go back soon. It's ok to be scared, I was, I am, but at least you are on the right track to get better. Give yourself a pat on the back for that and keep on keeponing!.
