why don't friends understand?

Posted by sunnydays on February 16, 2007, at 20:36:41

So I told one of my friends I was having a hard time lately, because my T's gone for a few days on vacation. It only adds two days onto the normal week between appointments, but that's a long time when you've been feeling bad. And also, I can't email him or anything, because he'll be unavailable while he's gone. Well, I could email, but he wouldn't get it until he gets back. So no contact, when I have been having contact four or five times a week, at least, even if only just a couple words by email. He gave me the name of another T I can call if I need to. I know her, but not very well, and I don't like talking to people I don't know very well, so I'm not sure that calling her would help.

I'm also increasing to two times a week once he gets back. That's how hard a time I've been having. Just random depression. It gets really intense sometimes, and then goes away - usually it only stays a few hours at a time. My friend just didn't understand why I would miss him so much. She said I'd be fine, and I know it will be, that's not the issue. I don't need to hear that I got through longer periods than this, I'll get through this one. I just need her to understand the pain I'm in. I cried myself to sleep last night because I already miss him.
