I feel like this is a bad piece of information for me to have because what if I abuse it and start to over text/call him and it gets out of control?
Would it be best just to delete his number and avoid potentially bombarding him with texts on his personal phone when I am not doing well?

I would talk with him about it on the 15th. My T is that way with her email address. When she was out (with chemo treatments for cancer coincidentally), I had a crisis and drunk emailed her repeatedly. We had not discussed boundaries for it and she politely cut me off. We've now discussed it and she said emailing should be okay as long as I didn't expect her to reply. She said if I ever emailed too much, she would politely cut me off again; not because she would be mad at me, pissed off, think I'm crazy, etc; ONLY because she cannot do counseling by email. It sounds like your T is a reasonable fellow and the two of you could work things out. Talking about boundaries is always a good thing!
