But see. . .you're having a knee jerk reaction b/c he didn't respond the way you wanted him to.

He said you could call. . .and you did. . .and he took your call. He suggested several avenues to help you in the immediate moment. Just b/c the things he said and did didn't make you *feel* a particular way doesn't mean he doesn't value you or feel concern for your problems. If he wasn't concerned, he wouldn't have pointed you toward peeps who could help you in the moment. You see what I'm saying? He WAS there when you called. . .I don't imagine he ever said that you can call and he can fix it over the phone. It's hard for us to remember sometimes that T's have a life outside the office, and even though they invite us to call in emergencies, it doesn't always mean that they won't be making a referral elsewhere to help in that moment.

Telling him you won't phone again is a very juvenile reaction hon. I think you would probably get a much more emphatic and mature response from if you told him, "You know, when I called you, I felt this way, and your reaction led me to feel this other way. I think I may have misunderstood what you meant when you said I can call anytime. Could we talk about this so I'll better understand what to expect from you when I need to call in crisis?" Lashing out, saying "Well fine, I just won't call you anymore b/c you don't meet my needs" is very similar to a child screaming at her parent, "Fine! I hate you anyway."

I don't want to see you end up in the tragic place of being without a therapist, affecting an "I don't give a damn" attitude when it is SO VERY apparent that you DO. Don't go jumping off this bridge before you think it through, ok sweetie?
