I have a very hard time thinking that I am not the only client she sees. Since my therapist is in private practice, I rarely ever see any other clients. That helps alot. This last session, the receptionist made a comment, "She has really been busy today. One couple just left when you came in."

This threw me off a bit. It made me feel like my therapist was worn out from having so many that day. And also that a couple just left 5 minutes before I came in. I don't like that. I know that some of you have therapists that do that all day long. Mine doesn't. She normally has a 9:00, 11:00, and 1:00 appointment. I am the only one who comes in at 3:00.

This may be part of the reason I was so flat with my emotions that day. I was thinking about the other couple just being in there, and I felt like my therapist was ready to go home.

I know this sounds really immature, but it is how I feel. I don't want to know about any other clients. I wish the receptionist would not make comments like that! For some reason, that is a trigger to shut down! I am sure there is some psychological reason why I am bothered by that so much. I guess I can explore that and find out!
