I am so tired.

It's been a year since I've been waking up in the middle of the night three to four times a week, which I suspect I have some kind of sleeping disorder feeling exhausted yet pushing myself to study well. Summer break came and I finally had the courage to ask my parents to get me braces and stuff but when I tell them some stuff about if I can get Marpe or if we can switch clinics, I wanna ask if the orthodontist is board certified or she just might be a GP. But then my mom got mad at me and kept saying I had no faith in people and that, "I knew more than dentists." WHAT THE FUCK, I just wanted to know if the person who was handling my dental health knew what they were doing because I know a LOT of people who've had braces for 6-7 years because they got them from General Dentists not orthodontists. I don't even know what to do now, my parents keep saying I don't need palatal expansion yet I have bruxism, tmj, and my palate is narrow.
