Extra session today. Told him why I was there (impulsive actions on Sunday) that led me to finally admit I needed to finish his stupid crisis plan. He said he was impressed with my ability to step away from my actions, really glad I came in. "Can you even imagine having this conversation a month ago?"

So we went through the initial phase of the crisis plan. Didn't have enough time to go into the post crisis phase of the plan. He had some good insights, I added a few things.

Interesting bits:

• In part of the plan I asked him to be willing to converse with any admitting team to collaborate on a diagnosis and possible medications. He said he was cool with that, knowing I wouldn't want to be on anything heavy duty.
• In the event that I were ever admitted, he said he'd write a note for work telling them whatever I wanted to. I paused a moment, giggled and said "butt surgery."
  "Okay, Daisy, but you're going to have a hard time explaining why an LCSW is writing you a doctor's note for butt surgery."
• He explained when he'd want me to call him in crisis (I asked). He clarified his thoughts and was really glad I was at least considering adding that as a tool in my toolbox.

I see him again on Friday.
