afraid of doctors appointment tomorrow

Topic: Invalidation, Minimalization and Gaslighting

I have a long history of doctors ...well ..mistreating me?

Started at an early age and to today I'd say 9 from 10 times the encounter makes me feel worse, so that Im not visiting them often.

But this time I've noticed something more serious.

And I was very lucky to get an appointment so soon.

It's just that I'm afraid, I also read that doctors will take a woman more serious when she's with a man.

But I do not have anyone I could ask and I also do not wanna ask someone from the subreddit of my town.

So I'm afraid if the appointment will ne another round of abuse
