For me, I'd say it's when I'm stuck in some sort of spiral of anxiety or depression or self-hatred. Especially if it's interfering with my ability to function, like I'm just sitting there sobbing or in an extended panic attack, etc.



That's for texts or phone calls, which I think of as more urgent. E-mails might just be because I had a thought about something we discussed in session or maybe if I had a misunderstanding with T or MC, something like that. But not urgent.
