> I agree with Tender, I wish I could say it as well!
I wish I could write like Tender too, she is so good at expressing herself!
But my best guess is that you didn't ask him to call back, so he is giving you some space. (You didn't, did you? Sorry if I assumed this. )
I didn't ask him to call me back, at the time I didn't even want to talk to him! I think you are right, we both need space !

> And I seriously doubt he thought you were "bugging him" with too many phone calls. Obviously you are upset and he would expect multiple calls until you felt calmer. Or at least mine would. Calling is tricky, again it depends on the individual therapist. But mine has always insisted that he wants to prevent a melt down if possible instead of trying to mop up the puddle. You should ask him to ease your mind.When I called him the first 2 times, I asked him if it was okay. He told me to call him when I need him, he must be like your T , it is okay with him. He said it was part of his job.
