I have to be in daily contact with my T for awhile and then see him 2xs a week for awhile until I'm stable again. I am beginning to wonder if that will ever happen. I am glad that my T realizes that I need some extra care and feeding right now and that he's not just pushing me away. I guess I'm not used to people caring about me and wanting me to be well. I know the man is being paid for this but I think he would care even if he didn't get paid.

Well, he's getting paid for his expertise and services...I think the caring is a free bonus. I talked to my T today Hope you're getting the support you need and that you'll find some stability soon.

My T has explained about caring and getting paid to my friend who is also her client. She said that what we pay for is her expertise, etc.. The caring is free. I wish she would say that to me, but I ought to be able to figure it out because she kept in contact with me for a few months in between when I was her student and before I became a client, and she looked for people closer to me to refer me to, and she didn't have to do any of that. She never has much free time either, so it says something that she took the time to make sure that I was taken care of. So, I think you're right, and your T would care about you even without getting paid.
