Thankfully he switched the topic to self harm and we briefly talked about that, and then set me up with an emergency crisis appt next week for a pdoc. But, I seriously walked out of there feeling worse than I did when I went in. I really like this T, and I feel like I've opened up to him more than any other t before. But now I'm worried that he's becoming too frustrated with me and will terminate. I don't know what else to do besides write him a letter explaining all of this, because apparently I suck at letting people in. I don't think I've felt this suicidal than I do tonight.

I highlighted something, that stood out to me, where you mentioned hitting a plateau. Perhaps, it could possibly be, about expressing yourself, right there, right then, in the moment. Not after home, safe and sound and with pen/paper/keyboard/wordpad.
