I had my appt with T today. What I had to talk about was very uncomfortable for me. On the good side of all this I'm able to talk about what's bothering me with a much greater ease than ever before: I'm able to connect to my feelings with words to explain them.
My T gave me a homework assignment and I'm feeling rather anxious about it. I won't go into details but I have to do this assignment before my next appt is in three weeks!!    Stupid me at the time had the option to make an appt to see her next week!!! I thought to myself I can be strong and wait for three weeks (she's going away in a couple of weeks). I feel like I'm going to die if I have to wait three weeks with this anxious feeling of my homework and all that it brings up for me (we did discuss my anxious feelings about this in my appt today). I want to be done with my 'homework' assignment already and get it over with. The anticipation is stressing me out and then to have to wait three weeks to talk about it isn't going to work for me.I just sent T an email asking if I could have an appt with her next Tuesday. Please keep your fingers and toes crossed for me that I can get an appt with her!!! If I have to wait three weeks this is so going to suck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you Pink
I so don't feel like I can do this homework assignment but I'm going to force myself to. I need something to cope with these feelings. I'm not doing anything stupid.... I feel like I need a nap. This is exhausting!

I could just camp out in the waiting room   - Not!  She usually checks email in the evening. I decided not to call her as the email is enough. But she did have problems getting my email before - not sure what that was about either my end or hers? Perhaps I should call her anyways??? I don't want to be a pest. Perhaps I'm giving this more energy than I need to!! argh!

Hey Geez,
If you don't hear from her in the next few hours or by this evening then you could always ring first thing tomorrow. Or if it's worrying you maybe just ring now and say you sent and email but worried she wouldn't get it. You have every right to ask to take the appointment, she did offer you it. If she's going on holiday in a few weeks then take as much support you can now. It can often take more courage to ask for help than to go it alone.

Thank you ((dizgirl)) and everyone. I just went out for a few hours and it's helped me get my mind off of it a bit. I'm going to go to bed now. Still haven't heard from T yet. I'll call her tomorrow.

Update: Even thought I was exhausted yesterday I slept poorly last night. I called T this morning and left her a message. I got an email from her this morning saying that I have an appt for Tues of next week at 11:30. I'm feeling a little bit of comfort in that. My homework is going to be difficult as just thinking about it makes me very uncomfortable. On the upside I don't have to wait so long before my next appt.
Thanks for listening as always. ((((everyone))))

 Thank you for being supportive! PS - I'm not willing to go into detail about what my homework is about here on PC. It's uncomfortable to say the least.
