This past week I have unloaded a lot onto my therpaist and he the same with me. I emailed him over the weekend (he lets me email him whenever I need to) and I emailed him today and he hasn't responded. And I am panicking. I know that is stupid. But I depend on hearing from him and he hasnt emailed me in response to my email to him and I need to hear from him.
My therapist is this matter of fact ..the truth hurts type of therapist..and so he doesnt sugar coat things for me..which I guess is good for me, but sometimes I Cannot take what he has to say and there have been many times thatI have gotten my feelings hurt. So, part of me wants to hear from him and the other part wants him to leave me alone.
I can't win.

I'm sure he'll get back in touch soon. Is there something you can do, that will get you away from your computer, for a while? A long walk, maybe? A movie? When I'm waiting for an important communication, it helps to break up time into long chunks *away* from the computer.

Oh I know the feeling so well. The fear of going and being criticized. So no more therapist. Couldn't afford it anyway. Phillipa
