Thanks all.
No real news. Talked to NYC last night and told him about the guy I made an appointment with. He thought it sounded promising.
He had taken a look at psych today for my area when we were on the phone the prior session, and saw a guy that he thought sounded really good for me. I had saved a copy of that T's homepage in a folder I created for "potential T's" so it was reinforcing to have him bring the guy up. He really like the fact that this guy did "relational" therapy—or is theoretically inclined that way (?); a discussion of theories ensued. The guy would be in his 60s, PhD, has a long, impressive resume of treatment background, supervising, founding programs, professional service..... But who knows?
Thought I was meeting with my local T today (Tuesday), but no, not until next week. I’ll email her back and see if she has any names, etc. Wonder if I should ask about the “relational” guy? Probably won’t think it’s a good idea since he’s not a behaviorist.
Klonopin. I hate dealing with my pdoc. Appointments 2 months apart, horrible clinic to work with. He gave me a 6 week break between appointments this time, but then 2 weeks later they left a message to cancel. In my duress with SSDI eval, I didn't get back to the clinic for about 9 days. So my appt. is 2 weeks away still (that makes 10 weeks between appts. for what was to be a 6 week duration.) If it weren't such a hassle getting in touch with the clinic--nurse on duty 2-3 days a week--I'd try and let him know. I see now that it's a big deal for me because I have been experiencing extreme anxiety since our last appt--when the Klonopin was prescribed. But I’ll call and see if she’s in, and won’t take any more of it.
