I think the title says it all. I have never experienced this before with her. I have not confronted her about it and won't be able to until the beginning of March because she's away. But I just got off the phone with her and she has been a) curt, and b) sounding like she is just pretending to be nice.

I feel really bad about it and am thinking about anything I might have done. There was one time I was upset because there was no place to park...maybe she's mad because of that.

I know I should call her even though she is not there, but I don't feel ready.

I would just ask her flat out if she is mad at you...I've asked my T many times because I'm just way to concerned about what he thinks of me. He knows this and always says no. If it is going to continue to bother you, the best way to deal with it is to confront it asap. Good luck

I'm sorry for this. Even if you've done something wrong (but it really doesn't sound like, judging by your post), she has no right to be mad at you without giving a clear explaining. But.. was it just this call, or she's like that even during therapy too? Because if it just was on phone, maybe it was only a bad moment not related to you.

All I can suggest is to confront her at March about what you're feeling.

I'm so sorry you're left with this horrible feeling when your T is away until March. It really doesn't sound like she can be mad with you. I agree with Liam, if it was just her manner in one phonecall, can you try to think of other reasons for her being like that- reasons to do with her, not you? I sometimes do this when my T acts out of character. So I might say "Ok. Either she deliberately didn't text me because I'm too much and she doesn't care about me anymore. Or it could be one of these three other possibilities... (1) she had a really tiring day and fell asleep; (2) she is out and has no signal; (3) her child is ill and T can't leave her." Just acknowledging that there are other possibilities usually helps.

Could you do this for T's behaviour during the phonecall? Like (1) she was about to go away and was feeling stressed about tying up all the loose ends at work; (2) she had a fight with her partner; (3) she had just got some frustrating news.

Hope March comes around quickly for you
