We just clarified this last session.. I am allowed to text when I am in crisis and for me that is having intense SI. I can email as much as possible (right now once a week, but he doesn't always respond). I can call his cell phone, and leave a message if he is busy. Or I can call the office and leave a message with the receptionists, or be transferred to his voicemail.

right now, I don't feel comfortable doing anything other than email. We had a bit of a falling out two weeks ago, concerning texting so I am need build trust back up again.
