Dear developmental clinician,

You were supposed to come yesterday. You said you’d be here between 12:30 and 1. 1:30 came and you still hadn’t arrived so I called your cellphone. You didn’t answer and I was going to leave a message but your voice mailbox was full. I called back at 2 and still no answer or ability to leave a message. Then you text me to say you are in a meeting. Hello, you are supposed to be here, tell me if you can’t come. Then I thought that perhaps you got confused because Monday was President’s Day and maybe you’d come today instead. It’s going on 2 and you’re not here. I guess I should try to call your office phone now and hope that voice mailbox isn’t full. This isn’t the first time you’ve done this either. This was supposed to be your last visit since you think I’m stable and this was supposed to be a short term treatment service. You gave me a worksheet that you wanted to do with me; half of me thinks I should just do it on my own. I would like to just write you off forever but you did say you were going to try to help me find a therapy group or some sort of long-term support in addition to my trauma t. So I would like to see you one more time to see if you know of anything since when I have looked on my own I haven’t been able to find anything appropriate for me. But I am beyond annoyed at this point because you are so unprofessional. As I’ve said, this wasn’t the first time this has happened. I think you yourself could use some therapy at this point. You better answer when I call you on your office phone.

Grrr,
Butterfly
