> hhhmm, so she is concerned about you and wants to know that you'll be OK between appointments, perhaps that relates to the DBT (a lot of which is about reducing self-harm, tolerating strong emotions, mindfulness-identifying and coping with emotions)
***Sounds good.

> I don't think she is tired of you, just concerned for you and eager probably to get you the treatment she feels you need. And the antidepressant thing, well you know they say it takes a while until people have an adequate level of the stuff in their system, so the sooner the better, especially it being a holiday soon and all.
> She's concerned, do you think she should be?***I guess she concerned, she seems to have wickedly high boundaries in some ways and not in others. I think she proly does care and thats why such huge boundaries. But it makes it hard cuz she's just not there reliably except for appts. The rest of the time its sort of iffy to try and get ahold of her. She's pretty good bout eventually returning messages left at her office. But not totally reliable about it.
I am taking care. I phoned our local crisis line to find out what I can do if I freak (since my T seems iffy), and they will send a mental health team out to a place of your choosing (eventually) and they will assess you and if need be can get you admitted. So I am trying to cover my bases here.
Thanks Sleepy,
