I put other. My T has been really good at telling me it's ok to call or e-mail her, but I always worry that I will push that boundary too far one day and I will come in and she'll have "the talk" with me about abusing e-mail privileges. She said if I e-mailed every day that it wouldn't be "bad," but maybe that I would need more care than she could give. Luckily I do not think I would ever email her that much. So far, at my worst, I e-mailed about 2-3 times in a week.
That being said, my anxiety is not nearly so bad with this T than any previous ones, and I think it is because I "click" much better with her than the others, and she is so open herself; it makes it so I don't have to guess at what she is feeling.
This is sort of unique to the T relationship in a way, but also I do have a lot of anxiety that at any little thing that goes wrong that I certainly will be fired, or evicted from my apartment, and at school I was always convinced I failed every test even though I never did.
