For only a week? No. That's not a very long time. If you find yourself in a true crisis, you do have your Pdoc to call. I might would for a longer period of time (like over two weeks or so). I always just relied on the knowledge that my pdoc was available in a serious crisis (meaning so bad that I might need actual pdoc intervention and/or hospitalization; I figured anything less than that I could muddle through for a few days.)
