The main thing you can do is be honest. If you want your doctor to know exactly what's going on with you, you need to tell them so. Good luck and take care!

First of all, ask. Be clear about what you think you need that you are not getting and be receptive to your doctor's perspective on it as well.

Talk openly. Sometimes we feel judged by healthcare professionals, but being shady or not telling the whole truth can become an obstacle towards healing. They are trained to listen and evaluate the situation.

First, you want to know why you are visiting the doctor. What are you worried about? It is your physical health? Mental health? Knowing what the problem is will allow your doctor to give you want you need to make you better. Additionally, you need to be honest with your doctor. Don't skimp or lie on the details of your condition-- tell them everything. Communicate with your doctor about what you think you need, and if your doctor doesn't understand you might just want to visit another one to ensure that you really are okay.

When dealing with doctors it's often about assertiveness. Know what you want to talk about before going in - perhaps write a list of all the things you want to talk about so you make sure you don't forget things. And I know this is hard, but it's okay to be a bit pushy! Sometimes we need to be the squeaky wheel in order to get the oil.

That depends on what you need. If you just ask them about it, you should be able to get what you need!

The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
