I want to...

Now that is interesting Mouse.....and makes sense to me.

Well, I called my T this morning, and he never called back. Sigh. You can bet I'll never do that again.

Sunrise, I'm sorry. You can just feel the love can't you? Oh wait, they don't want us to become too dependent...maybe another excuse for 'I really don't have time to care about you between sessions'...

I'm going to call mine back today and nicely say 'did you get my message earlier this week?'. What I'd like to say to T next session is there must be a better option of contacting him. He always blames his assistant for the lack of information but I wonder if that is true or not.

I asked if his assistant could call me back and that something has come up. But that went ignored and I need to know why. It's not like I called multiple times a day and bugged them.

I just don't understand this. One of my problems has always been reaching out to someone when I need help. Now, I finally do it and this is what happens...I realize he has many other clients but a simple call from his assistant would've been fine... to say either we don't have anything sorry or I can add you to the waitlist (he's done that before) or tell me if something opened up earlier next week. ANYTHING AT THIS POINT IS BETTER THAN THIS

I'm sorry, I'm mad today. Maybe I shouldn't call them today and try and calm down.

I think if you need to talk to him you should call again and say so on your message. i once called my T and he didn't call back for a few days. The next session I began by simply saying "If i call you can I expect a return call?" I wasn't challenging him, but I needed it to be clear for my own sake so i know the parameters. I guess we just want everything to be black and white. Yes or no. Screw the gray areas, if you know what I mean. Of course, I don't know if I could call again, but I think that's a reasonable thing to do, especially if you really need him.

Be good to yourself.

Pink,

I think I really get why you didn't make the call. Who needs this rejection? Sometimes it feels safer to avoid it, I guess.

Thanks for the condolences, SG, almedafan, and sister. It has been 32 hours since I called T and still have heard nothing. Sigh. I don't think we will be talking about this in our next session because that was the whole point, to set up a next session for me, as my regular session time is now given over to couples with my husband. I have no next session. I'm feeling a little abandoned. On the other hand, I feel a little better because I just talked to my lawyer, and she said she had a meeting with my T this morning for another client, and also that she later had a phone conference with my T as he was commuting to his next appointment, so he has been one busy guy today and not much in his office. So maybe I need to give him a break... He doesn't work tomorrow and I'll be gone tonight, so I probably won't be hearing from him. Good thing I'm not suicidal or something.
