When can you establish an appointment with your T?

still havent heard anything from my T.
some stuff has happened this weekend... things are really bad.
i just emailed her-- "PLEASE help, please read this email, PLEASE let us come talk to you"- that i was sorry to be so selfish, but that things are really going off the deep end here and we have GOT to get in to talk to her.

my husband is a T. when i said something to him this morning about how i miss her and wish she'd call me to make an appointment he was like "Give her a BREAK! She just got over with some of her busy stuff YESTERDAY!"
he is SO freaking CLUELESS about anything i go through

our hearts are already broken from having this relationship so....so... cracked open for the past month. it has been so hard. i am sitting here near tears for the past few hours just because of not knowing what's going to happen
i just feel so abandoned and alone lately
i know she's so busy and tired but i just wish things could get b ack to normal.... we haven't had a normal session in her office since the last week of march and this just keeps getting harder and harder as time goes by
if she wasn't such an amazing therapist in the 1st place it wouldn't be such a big deal i guess...but for the past 1.5 years she has just been so incredible...now to have NO support for so long just ... i feel like we have been sinking and sinking

(((((((((massive hugs))))))))) You have been so brave through all of this! It's probably just me but your T sounds a bit selfish talking about herself and how she's ok and how she's tired but not asking how you are or trying to give you some reassurance during this time when she has left you so lost.
I think she possibly answered your question of if she was ever going to talk to you again by communicating via text, however I think she should have answered your questions clearly. I would hope if she had any plans or ideas to quit therapy that she would have said it by now and that the reason she didn't answer your questions is because she will be making an appointment with you very soon...hopefully this coming week.

I know how hard it is to go without support, I have gone months at times without it and it's very painful you deserve a medal for your patience and it's definately ok to feel upset by it all!

You are doing such a great job in coping with all this uncertainty...I'm not sure I would be handling it so well myself. You should be proud of yourself for sticking it out like you have. I really hope your T calls soon with an appointment for you.
I know it hurts and just seems so never-ending because you are stuck in this limbo, but look at how well you've done over the past several weeks. Keep hanging tough! You are in my thoughts!

thank you for the reassurance
i am trying to think good thoughts... like you said, if she wasn't going to talk to me anymore she probably wouldn't be texting me
it is just so hard to wait!
i hate being in limbo like this, its so painful!!
and usually i am so much stronger than this, usually i never post whiney, angst-y posts like this ANYWHERE... but we haven't had any regular therapy since the end of March and it has just done me IN! i am all up for having challenges, i can handle things on my own a good deal, but this has just been TOO MUCH:
right as all this unstability in therapy happened,
2 people in my family died the same week
Easter (SRA holiday) happened
my husband had to go out of town for over a week, leaving me at home alone
several really difficult personal things happened in a row
my dad almost died in an accident
my parents came to visit (ACK! Major trigger!!)

all that has been in the past few weeks...and I've had to handle it all on my own. its justt been too much to do.

waiting stinks, I am so sorry you are stuck in that limbo, and that you have had so much happen in this time you could have used T's support. I hope you can connect with her soon! (((((((((((((sarahmichelle)))))))))))))

there was another death in the family this morning.

my heart just feels dead.

i could really use my T's support.

i keep telling myself over and over again "its no big deal. its no big deal." trying to make myself believe it.

i feel so abandoned though.
