Boy, I know that place well. Except perhaps that I rarely get close enough to people to allow them the chance to dump me. My default assumption is that people don't particularly like me, and I operate on that basis.
He is back, and he seems to to be doing well. I think he's way more resilient than I am long term, though he isn't so very good in a crisis (by which I mean *his* crises). I'm doing ok too. I've added Risperdal to my daily meds for the short term because my anxiety was skyrocketing and I was getting pretty obsessive. And a bit depressed I suppose. But that wasn't unexpected after even the most minor surgery. My body just doesn't like stress. My blood sugars are way up too. I suppose I should check to see what to do with regard to insulin when I'm stressed.
I'm glad you were able to work the issue out with her this session (for the most part). Is that a sign of improvement in your relationship? It is best to understand the policy, but I have to say she's tough. An hour isn't really very long. So she operates on the basis that a time is free until you're ready to check out, so to speak? She's not willing to hang the time behind the counter for longer than an hour? I'm not really sure about my therapist. I tend to accept an appointment time and tell him I'll cancel if I can't make it. Which is likely more inconvenient for him.
