have to talked to T about this?? it's really difficult when no one seems to be cooperating with you. can you talk to your insiders? i know that deedee is sometimes very needy and i don't know what to do for her.

we have a rule for us that i am the only one who phones T unless it is such that i am out of commission and then only Vicki is allowed to make a call. and that is only for emergencies. our T has an answering service that relays calls after hours and she calls back. it is sometimes really hard not to call between appts. both deedees and Vicki have a book that they can draw, write, paint or whatever in. Vicki often writes to T in hers, the deedees draw. we may do a special project like color a picture or something to give to T the next visit. we have also expressed to T that we need to see her more often. we are upping sessions to 3x/week for a while, then go back to 2 or expanded sessions, if insurance allows.

try to work things out between your insiders and T to meet needs and still maintain some boundries. it is really difficult, i know, but the more you can work this out with your insiders, the healthier they will become.

i'm here if you guys need to talk. you can pm anytime.
