I wanted to skip my appointment with Dr. Jeong today; however, I did not feel brave enough to cancel. I worried she would ask for an explanation and that I would embarrass myself trying to provide one. I thought of just not showing up, but I don’t know what would happen if I did that. I thought maybe she might call the police, as if I had gone missing. Or as if she were concerned because I naively exposed my childhood desire to kill myself.
