So, I told my t yesterday that I was interested in the pdoc in her office and that my mom had offered to pay the $225 evaluation fee. She acted weird about it in my opinion and it made me feel embarrassed. It was probably in my head but I have obsessed about it none the less. I think it is just because there is so much going on. I wrote this to paraphrase the message I wanted to leave her:

There is no need to return my call as I realize this is ridiculous! However, if I don't get it out I will continue to obsess about it as I feel embarrassed. The only reason I mentioned the possibility of switching doctors is I feel like mine has dropped the ball recently. I do like him but I don't necessarily depend on him. Anyway, just afraid I sounded like an idiot and wanted to clarify.

Is this completely ridiculous? Would you leave a message like this? Would you address it at all or just let it go? I know I am a ridiculous person. I actually called her office number but then hung up. I don't want to further embarrass myself. What do you think?

Me? I would call but I obsess over conversations I feel I embarassed myself in and need closure with them. Do what will help.

I would let it go for fear of embarrassing myself further. You don't need to justify yourself to her in my opinion.

Thank you both. I'm glad I asked this on here before making the call. I think I will let it go with her and try to let it go in my head.

I would definitely obsess over a message or something I said in person, and do it all the time. One time I apologized to my pdoc for saying something stupid and acting completely irrational and he told me he knew it was the nature of the disease and it made me feel better in a weird way. I didn't do it right away though, I waited to my next scheduled appointment.
