MY T CANCELLED MY APPOINTMENT THIS MORNING.
 I FEEL LIKE CRYING. I FEEL SCARED. I'm still dealing with delusional thoughts, though it's much better since my meds change 3 weeks ago. But I still HATE that I have this delusional thinking. And I do still have thoughts and/or feelings that life isn't really worth living. I feel fragile, jumpy and a bit paranoid. (Did he do this on purpose??) What if he's sick of my depression and negativity? I'm such a mess.  The secretary said he called in sick, so I guess he could really be sick.

With kindness, support and "sweet dreamings."

I am sorry that your T is sick, it is so hard when they cancel appointments. Can you email your T or call him later in the week to see if you can get another appointment. I am sending you hugs

So sorry your appointment had to be cancelled but I am sure you it was genuine I know that does not mean you are not going to think it might not have been and to think that it was cancelled for a personal reason, I know I am prone to doing that, it is difficult to stop.
I hope you manage to rearrange the appointment. Take care snow |

Yes, the secretary set up an appt. for Friday morning but, you know... I was prepared, nervous, looking foward to, anxious and then disappointed and taking it personally when he cancelled.
I'm trying to get some things done around the house and maybe go outside for a bit - that always makes me feel better. Thank you for responding and caring. Now I'm gonna start the nervous, worry, anxious, etc. all over again. I already have appts set up on Tues. every week for the month of June. So I'll see him Friday and then again on Tuesday. This is doubling my anxiety. Now I'm afraid he'll cancel again on Friday or suggest canceling next Tuesday.

I can really understand the nervous, worry, anxious feelings which aproach as appt get closer. For me its a case of not cancling as I know if I do the next appt will be that much harder to attend with the chances are I would not ever be able to go back and with that in mind I have not missed an appt yet. Hope it goes well on Friday Take care snow |

Oh man, that sucks.
My T went on vacation to see the grandkids and I survived. I was so freaked out though. Hugs for you

I am sorry that happened to you. "The simplest explanation for a phenomenon is most likely the correct explanation.", therefore in your case I imagine your T was sick.

Hey, Sweetie,
I'm so sorry the T. cancelled on you. It has nothing to do with you, but it's still bad form for a therapist to do such a thing. If you want to talk more about it, do so.

(((((pom)))) I'm sorry T cancelled. Did you get a reschedule? No he is NOT sick of your feelings, THAT is his job. Please take some deep breaths. Maybe upping your meds would help?? I know it's only been three weeks but if you are still having those thoughts you need to let whomever is perscribing your meds...... ~big ol' bear hugs~ from the midwest.

Hmmm, I really hate when appointments get canceled. My T seems rarely does this, TG. But she can't control the weather. I think I would handle it a better now but for a while there it really through me for a loop.
Hang in there and try to ignore any thought that the universe or your T is aligned against you. |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
