Have you ever asked to see another T while yours is on vacation?
Yes I did, but it wasn't planned. I was having sui thoughts and was afraid I would do something stupid. I called the center to make an appt with other t T suggested, but other t wasn't available for several days and it would have made it so I saw him and my T back to back. The next day they were worse so I called the center back, none of the other ts T suggested were available that afternoon, so I saw the only T who was available.

Did your T think this was a good or bad idea? Why?
Before T went on vacation she said I could have a session with a t who I had previously done testing with if I felt I needed it. She said she could arrange it before she left. I told her I thought I'd be fine and she told me I could call and make an appointment later if I felt I needed it.

If you saw another T, did you have your T tell them anything about you?
Since I met with the other t in kind of a crisis situation and it wasn't the t who T had suggested, he didn't know anything and T hadn't told him anything. Other t actually started out saying something like, "All I know is that you've been working with T next door, but I don't know what you've been talking about, so maybe you want to tell me a little about that or explain what I could do to help you today." All other t knew is that I called and said I had to have an appt with some T who is available this afternoon.

Did you talk much to the other T?
In session with other t I probably talked more than him and I probably talked just as much, and maybe a little more, when I was with regular T.

Did seeing them help or did you regret going?
Yes it helped because it helped me to regain logical/rational thinking abilities, calm my thoughts, and helped me from doing stupid actions.

Did it work against your therapy with your T in any way?
Not in anyway. T was in a way proud of me that I took that extra step to ask for what I needed for myself, stay safe, and step out of my comfort zone.
