Yes, I've been that way before. A couple of times for whatever reason, I ended up seeing my T on a Sunday and I was the only client that she saw that day. Knowing that made me feel guilty in some way. Then she reminded me that it was her responsibility to take care of her. I don't know if this is codependent behavior, or if it is just being nice. When I was growing up, I was taught by my parents not to have needs. They have realized this as I have become an adult and have worked to let it be okay for me to have needs, but I'm one of those people who never tries to be needy or express a need to someone. I know that's not exactly what you are talking about, but it reminded me of that. I think it was nice that you were concerned about the Tuesday clients because a lot of times in therapy it's easy just to think about ourselves, and our T and not think about the other clients. I think I'm rambling here. I don't think I know the answer to your question, but I can relate. Kit.
