nope i didn't mean it that way but i was told early on that i can't email excessively, i need to not be too dependent which i thought of as needy. i would email 2x a week at first and beat myself up about that being too much... and it was not but i am just personally saying, for me it would be exhausting, i don't think needy or clingy is bad all the time, its just not something i like or want to come off as so i try not to. if someone emailed me daily, i would be very annoyed but then again some therapists are probably better able to handle it. however i know mine would not, he told me straight up we would discuss it if it was too much and that would be if it was more than 3x a week.... so i never went that far. if you are fine with it and they are thats ok

all i am saying is its possible its being seen as needy or clingy now and they are just unsure of how to tell you kindly. idk. I'm not a therapist... and again its not always bad, we are supposed to need our therapists to a degree... i just was saying, to try to cut back and make yourself a personal goal for it.

Also another suggestion, if you want to try and cut back on emails, write things down. i have done it and its a great help, either in note form or just in a journal and when you go in, you can read it there. i highly recommend trying this
