I have emailed T several times, mainly about scheduling. But a few times I have emailed him about emotional stuff. He responds briefly, mainly to say "we can talk about this next session". He did email me Merry Christmas on Christmas, which I was surprised and happy about. I can - and do - call his work number to leave messages about what is going on with me. He has encouraged me to do this. But he will only respond if I specifically say "call me back". I also have his cell phone which is for emergencies, and he said that I define what an emergency is. I have used this a few times but even then I always need to leave a message because he never just picks up although he does call me back. I've never texted him and don't think I will because it would have to be an emergency and then I would call. It is tough though because sometimes I want to call or email him multiple times a week and I have to stop myself. I hate feeling so needy.
