Shame and Physical Therapy

Shame is a really uncomfortable sensation.

I am really lucky. I have a really wonderful primary care physician. However, I am embarrassed to contact him or see him too much. Some of you may know that I have experienced chronic anxiety. For me, it manifests as driving and health anxiety. With my health anxiety, I worry about things that are not likely to happen, and my brain will catastrophize and make me think I am having a heart attack when I am just having heartburn. As such, I worry about contacting my doctor with too many of my worries and thoughts. He has never made me feel this way, but this is something that concerns me nonetheless.
