I saw T today.. we talked about a whole bunch of different things.

First we talked about my visit with a new doctor this week.. The intent was to talk about going back on meds for really my anxiety stuff. T wrote a letter to the doctor, he knows the doctor, was confident that the doctor would work with him on my issues and meds, etc. Well, it didn't go well at all.. So, T and I talked about that, and he said he would call her and talk to her. So, we will see if he actually does that or not.

Then, we moved on to dbt stuff. Lets just say, DBT is not my friend right now and for some reason, I am just very leery of it it.. But that is another post all together. I will say, that I was able to verbalize my discomfort with it and T was great about it all and we had a great conversation.

Then, he told me that he looked at my fb page this week. He said, that he saw that I liked one of the articles on his Practice's FB page and decided to look at my page. He commented on a couple of things. Then he said, it is hot topic in the T world about whether or not T's should look at their client's FB pages, and said that he thought in some cases it provided more insight about their client if they did so. I told him that it something that has been talked about here on the message boards.. and told him that "we" all that Ts have better things to do then look at their client's fb pages or that they don't care enough to do it. He said that it sometimes gives him a little more insight on his clients and he thinks more to do it with some clients over others.

We also talked about me possibly being his kid's teacher next school year.. I asked him a couple of questions and he assured me that it is much more likely to have dual relationship in smaller towns like we live in. He encouraged me to keep asking questions and being open about the whole subject and if I keep doing that there shouldn't be any problems.

We spent the last maybe 10mins just chatting about misc. stuff.. it was actually kind of nice, it was just random chit chat.. and it was a great way to end a session that was all over the place..

Won't seem him next week though.. So, hopefully we can keep the momentum going with our appointments. This is the first time in a couple of weeks that I didn't walk away from an appointment with tons of anger!

How do you feel about him looking at your FB page?

I would prefer a T asked my permission before looking at my facebook page.

I am ok with it.. My profile is pretty public so I can't expect that people won't look at it who aren't on my friend's list. He is human, he saw my name that I had liked the article and he was curious.. doesn't bother me a bit. I was surprised that he told me actually. Although, think he brought it up because he saw pictures of me and my son together and said that I looked truly happy in them.. and he wanted me to see that, there are indeed times in my life that I am happy.. but I quickly push those moments aside and dwell on the more negative thoughts. It would bound to happen, really.. we have mutual fb friends.
