with the therapist that I had hoped would call. I called him during my lunch hour and told him a little bit about myself. I told him my therapist terminated me and he said (in a good-natured way), So he fired you? lolol
He asked me how I was doing and I told him that I had been having a really agonizing time. He said something like, I imagine you are hurt/in pain or something like that. I can't remember the last time someone irl said this to me. It felt good, and that terrifies me. He asked me two general questions, and the asked, "How are you doing with these questions, okay?" I want to allow myself to feel comforted by his compassionate, empathic manner, but I am afraid. I made an appointment for next Tuesday at 3:00. He seemed really kind, and I really needed a kind therapist at this point. I have to go but have some questions about what to say next Tues. Post later.
