Had she told me when I first emailed her about getting an earlier appointment, I could have handled it alot better. I took a half day off work to be there. It just hit me the wrong way when she said that as soon as I got in her office.
It was like:
"I worked you in, so let's get to it!" I would rather have had the option to think about whether or not I wanted to take a half day off work, knowing that she may be in kind of a hurried state. I guess I thought she was thinking more about where she had to be, than talking with me that day.
That is FAR from the truth. She did not make me feel rushed. I did that to myself. I automatically went into panic mode.
"Oh my! Uuuhhmmm what was it I wanted to talk about?" I couldn't even think straight at all.
I also went into: "
Therapy is stupid. Why am I here? This is dumb. What am I getting from this? I am wasting my money. She is laughing at me when I leave because of the stupid things I do and say when in our session. What is wrong with me? I hate this! Grow up and put your big girl panties on!"
