In reply to T cancelled AGAIN!!!, posted by fairywings on May 2, 2006, at 13:11:23
fairywings, I dont think youre overreacting at all. And it is in no way overly dependent to expect to see your T when you are scheduled to (or to get upset if that does not happen). I think everyone else has made good comments, but I just wanted to add my agreement. For me, trust is a HUGE issue and I'd be very hurt and afraid if my T did that. So no, I dont think you're overreacting one bit. And honestly, I think its okay to have a temper tantrum over this (as long as you arent throwing things at your T!) Sometimes I think its okay to let the young part of ourselves out in those ways.. you know? However, I also dont think it necessairly means that he's a bad fit for you.. but it does sound like something that needs to be brought up to me. Maybe he doesnt realize how much it affects you? I often think my T doesnt really "get" how much her actions/words affect me, both positively and negatively.
I hope you're able to talk to him about this next time you see him. I know how hard it is when you're really looking forward to a therapy appt and something happens last minute.
I hope this makes sense.. I'm sort of on another planet tonight but just wanted to drop you a line.
