I am so impressed that you asked!!! I don't think I could. My therapist isn't the sort that would understand that sort of request, I don't think. He does always tell me that I can call his cell phone and he'll get back to me when he can (unless he's got a family crisis, or is out of the country). And I've got the tape, at least. I've found that the feelings do lessen in intensity over time. Of course, that over time has been nine years for me, but I'm a slow learner, so don't judge by me.
It has always helped me to ask for support here while my therapist is gone. And distraction, distraction, distraction.
