argggggggg

Agreed--once my T asked me if I was OK to leave. I said yes. Then the next session, I was like, "What if I'd said no?" He said he could have given me an extra 5 minutes. Which was like...yeah, not sure how much that would have helped. But he does allow email, so that would be an option or an extra session. But 5 minutes at the time? Not so helpful.
