Would it be that hard to give me something to hang on to? I'm beginning to wonder whether you actually communicated with your colleague at all...'She'll be in touch' is the last thing I need.

Must be really really hard for you. Is your T sick or did something else happen?

I wish I could answer that question. I haven't heard from her since the end of June, and her colleague got in touch just under a month ago to say that 'She will be in touch to make another appointment.'

We usually have a summer break from the end of July to the middle of August, but I feel like she's really dropped the ball this time.

That sucks! I'm sorry! Do you have no way to contact her directly to ask about your next appointment? E-mail, text, phone?
Thanks for this!

I do, but I don't want to contact her, because I don't want to appear pushy. I have been informed that she will be in touch.

Oh, ok. You just sound so anxious over it that I am sure your T would understand and not think you are being pushy at all. Besides, sometimes it is not bad to be a bit pushy to take care of things. Anyway I hope she contacts you soon!
Thanks for this!

It's clear enough to me what you meant. A T might disagree, but I can't imagine why she should take offence.

It is OK and entirely professional to double check this. X says Y will be in touch but did X even talk to Y?

It's crazy after the past two days - but I'm I feel really good today. One thing I love is the fact that I've got extra money to spend on myself- you were kinda bleeding me dry at two sessions a week xDD. I can order my iced coffee without having to think twice. Does it sound silly to say that I want more space after you come back- or is it nothing more than classical insecure avoidant attachment?

I feel like after this amount of time it would be fine to reach out, just something brief, like wanting some sense of when you'd be able to make another appointment. And that you hope she's OK.
Thanks for this!

I get to see you tomorrow! I can't wait. Honestly you probably wont even remember who I am until you see my name on the calendar but ya... the long dreaded wait is nearly over. Lets never do this long with no contact again, ok?

I am feeling grounded in regard to therapy. I've kind of just put things out of my mind. However, I am not grounded in regard to work. I feel like all I do is complain.

T: Seriously, you are amazing. I know you know it is a big deal for me to be here, but still, you did not need to write me back on vacation, and you did despite the spotty wifi.

Despite my best intentions, I think I may love you just a little bit. Also, you were so cute when you visited me and asked at the end if I wanted a hug despite my general non-huginess. When I said yes, I think you squealed a bit

Dear T,
Were you surprised that ex-MC said he'd still be there for me in a crisis? Because I sort of got that vibe from you today. I mean, I agree that I should probably consider him only a nuclear option. But it still helps to know he's there.

Possible trigger:

And, on a less depressing note, thanks for a good session today.

Sorry for blowing up this thread as of late.
T, I don’t know what to do. The crisis line didn’t help, sleeping isn’t helping, do I email you? Do I actually want your help though? You’ll tell me to go to the hospital, so what would be the point of contacting you if I already know what you’ll say? You’re my last resort.. but my list is really short atm

As I drove to work this morning, I daydreamed about just sitting in your office and sobbing uncontrollably. I was inconsolable. It's not like I want to do that, really. I mean, part of me does. But there's no benefit to that. It'd bring no relief.

But I just want to cry uncontrollably.
