I'm not quite sure... T's agency has a crisis line that they always say to call "if anything comes up", so that would be a possibility, but I'm also really bad over the phone. I actually almost called them Saturday night because the flashbacks were so overwhelming, but I didn't want to be *that needy* right off the bat. I'm trying to keep the annoying neediness contained to the session time at least for the moment...
I think if it comes down to calling their hotline to spill about the falshbacks or head to the ER, I would prefer to call the hotline, but I want to try doing it in person first.
I've been "sitting on" these flashbacks and their content for the past 6 months. I didn't talk the T I had seen here about it because she was leaving and we were working on termination. I tried to talk to the T I saw after her, but that T didn't really know how to approach it nor did she give me the impression that she was comfortable talking about it. I feel like I'm bursting at the seams with this stuff. It has just kept intensifying over the past 6 months...
