The harder it is to go back. With the holidays and my schedule it ended up being 6 weeks between appts. for me. I still have 2 weeks to go until T. Everyday I think about canceling, when I think about my appt I am filled with fear and dread. I saw Pdoc about 4 weeks ago and T walked through the waiting room, never acknowledged me or made eye contact. I know this is the way this works, but it still really hurt. I feel like I have lost all security and trust. Just one of the horrible things about being in T.

Perhaps go back one more time to see what you feel and let T know how hurt you were at not being seen or acknowledged?

I think with so many clients going through the office in a day, if no one was scheduled for T during the time you were seeing pdoc, T was probably just concentrating on whatever task they were doing, not expecting anyone so not looking around. Next time call out a "Hello T"? I would do as WePow suggests and let T know you missed being seen, maybe joke and tell T next time they're going through the waiting room and you're in it, look for you.

I suspect your T's mind was just preoccupied and in another world. We are all guilty of that from time to time. Like Perna said, next time just say hello.
