I think I've only asked for a response a few times before this one. Then I screwed up and sent this email after the session because I was unreasonably upset again and I needed to send my thoughts. I didn't ask for a response but I didn't say "no response required", which maybe I should have. I guess I thought we could discuss the email at our next session but he wanted to call me that evening. I can feel myself frantically building walls to contain all the emotions that I have been allowing myself to feel and express to him lately. I feel like such a fool for letting anyone see my pain. I hope I can figure this out before Monday. I know we're going to have to talk about the email stuff then. It's just too much right now. People are coming Monday to pack up my belongings and I have to move into a hotel for a month. I can't deal with that and therapy relationship issues too.
I wonder if maybe he'd rather do phone calls than e-mails with you when you're feeling that upset? And if he'd be willing to do that? I hope he doesn't take away e-mail though, especially when you're in this bad of a place...
