I do not expect my T(s) to be available to me 24/7. But since they at one time allowed it, and one still does, it's nice to get acknowledgment if sharing something like this. I don't expect a reply within minutes or hours....and during a business day would be fine, when they are in the office. I would not expect a T to take time from their family, during their personal time, to touch base with me. Office hours are just fine. If you Email anyone else in any other line of work, even my family doctor, they typically get back to me during business hours. Maybe not that same day, but eventually.

As far as T1 goes, well, I didn't include this, but I Emailed her as well, telling her of the recent developments surrounding my grandpa's health, and she, too, did not respond to that Email. In fact, I had a session with her this afternoon, and somehow it came up, about support, etc.... and I mentioned that Email, and how she did not respond, and then told her T2 didn't either. She didn't say I'm sorry, or anything like that, she just said something like "it must have felt bad that neither one of us responded to that information. Um, yeah. Heartbreaking, actually, since my T's know I don't have much support outside of therapy right now. But not for lack of trying. Honestly, my T's make me feel even worse sometimes. Both of them. But T2 is just amazing in session.... it's just that I haven't had one in over a week. I'm just falling apart inside...and have a really hard time reaching out...because reaching out to my Ts, who I'm supposed to feel safe with, make me feel bad for doing it. I have really been trying to not contact T1 between sessions, just to get used to not having it...but then something big will come up, that leaves me in a place where I want to reach out...or need to. I dunno. The loss of this man will be the biggest loss I've ever had to deal with. And I've dealt with a lot. So I'm really messed up right now, and can't play these therapy games.

Like I said, I DO totally agree that Ts need their own time, but it's not like I'm texting her or sending her an Email to her private Email. It's her business one. And I know they both have times during their day that they devote to stuff like that.
