As I have been leaning more on my psychiatrist and my husband for support, my relationship with my t is changing. It sounds so petty, but it revolves around email. She used to always respond - even if not in great detail - to almost all my emails. Within the past few months, however, she may or may not respond. It makes me feel like she is pulling away from me. She has assured me over and over that if I am emailing too much or relying on her too much that she would let me know - and she hasn't said anything at all about the email.
So, I emailed her yesterday about not responding to emails and how that is hurtful, etc. and how I feel like that is contributing to the change I feel in our relationship......and she didn't reply! I don't know what to think. I really, really don't. I mean, the email was about not replying to my emails, and she didn't reply.
I don't expect her to do therapy over email and I realize she has a lot of other clients and a family, etc., but it has really hurt my feelings. Please help me think through this and gain some insight.
Thanks.
