I just realized it will be about 2 weeks until I see my T again unless someone cancels. I am on the cancellation list and who knows if someone will cancel in a slot I can make it. I am starting to freak out. I think my T realized that this was going to happen because she told me that when I call if I need her to call me back I'm supposed to say I need her to call me back not just a hey this is what's going on read my mind I need to talk to you message.

How am I going to manage? AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Both a little exciting and a little daunting to be on the cancellation list? A little like playing roulette. Any idea as to how often people cancel or how long the list is, etc.? I think I would have to divide the two weeks up and make some decisions (if I don't get a call/slot by X day, I'll call and leave a message and just have her call me back and check in with me) to see if I could make the two weeks feel more under my own control.

Jannie, I think she was trying to tell you that when you call be specific with respect to what you need from her. This is goo news! She is giving you permission and telling you what she needs from you in order to call you back.

I've been on cancellation lists in the past, not lately but I know it can be difficult. Can you schedule ahead? I try and do that to avoid the "list"...
