The way it works is, I call once or twice or so in a week and ask if she has an opening that day, due to a free appointment or cancellation.
When she does, she calls me back and I then jump into that appointment.

If there is nothing free, she doesnīt call me back.

Yes, well, the reason is, that suddenly I started to get very panicky when I had an appointment the next day and I could not sleep at all. And I mean, really not at all.

I thought talking about it in therapy would help, but it hasnīt so far.

I think it might be a burn-out thing because prior to this phenomenon , Iīve had many appointments in the week and I think maybe it got too much.
I think that the fact that you are allowing your panic to control your life is not a good thing. I understand it's uncomfortable, but it's not helping you to run from panic-inducing situations.

I say this because it sounds like that uncertainty and distance may be impacting your therapy by making that connection very difficult to maintain. It doesn't sound like a healthy set-up.
