I should have one.

My first T, last year, was great but was in the locale to train in a technique and left after about 8 weeks to go back to the East Coast(although was expensive, so...)

I, due to my not being not-so-functional in life, haven't worked in a long while, and so have limited income. I found a place that did sliding scale that I could afford, but its MSW candidates and so forth, getting experience, although I have heard some good things about them, as a recommendation from the first T.

So my T there, I saw for one week, and didn't get the most warm feeling, but it was good to talk. The next week she cancelled on me ("family emergency",) the day before. I called to rescheduled. The week after, she effectively terminated me, saying she had spoken with her supervisor and they decided I should speak with someone else, instead, and would call me.

I feel a little wounded generally (although I do keep that nice and hidden when I can, and prefer not to talk about this, really,) but I've felt... unlucky? I'm trying to not take the abandonment personally.

The place I did intake with, I got referred to them by an awesome PA-C, who's not even in mental health, but is so knowledgeable and helpful, and answered the question of what I might do, as a favor to me.

So, anyway... now my watch begins (yes Game of Thrones reference)
