Because I'm afraid of going to the dentist.
Because I wanted to put off and was afraid of dentist bills.
Because I was afraid of going to the dentist during covid.
Because I was afraid, I didn't go and am now in considerable pain with a huge missing filling, and an infection. I need a tooth pulled and also antibiotics. (can't afford or endure a root canal)
I'm trying to give my fear to God. Please pray for me, even though I created this mess.

Re: Prayers needed
I am praying for you and remember St. Apollonia serves as a welcome refuge for those suffering from dental pain, particularly toothaches.
"0 Glorious Apollonia, patron saint of dentistry and refuge to all those suffering from diseases of the teeth, I consecrate myself to thee, beseeching thee to number me among thy clients. ... 0 My God, bring me safe through temptation and strengthen me as thou didst our own patron Apollonia, through Christ our Lord. Amen."

Re: Prayers needed
I am feeling better than when I made the original post. So your prayers are indeed helping. God is good.
