And now I feel even worse and I know she has to be tired of me.

What helps for me, when I feel overwhelmed, is to write everything down in a letter to T. Not emails, but actual letters. Then send them snail mail to T, and talk through the emotions in the letters in person. I find that when I start writing, I connect to T and release the emotions at the same time, without the sense of urgency and anxiety that emailing and texting envoke. I wouldn't advice this in a crisis, but it helps me get through passing feelings of panic and needing to connect. Plus I don't get embarassed later.
