First, let's say I did NOT disappear. I just needed some me time. Since my anxiety meds started to make me nauseaus every day, all day long. So, I have to take some extreme measures to deal with that.

Second, I enjoyed Christmas. Actually got stuff I did not expect to get, which helped (temporarily) bring my mood back up.

Third, on the 23, 24 AND Christmas, I had panic attacks and self harm urges. I didn't know why the urges happened but they did. Something I'll have to make sure to tell Meredith about. After all, therapists can't help you unless they know what's going on in your life.

Finally, I do NOT know WHEN I will see Meredith again as the office refuses to give me a new therapy appointment that works with the schedule of my everyday life.

Glad you had a nice Christmas! I don't understand how your therapist's office can refuse to give you an appointment that works for you, unless you were asking for one outside their normal hours, which I'm sure you weren't. Doesn't make sense. What are you supposed to do? Hope you're able to get in to see her!

Yup, exactly. They just keep saying. "I'll check her schedule again." or "no. She's not available then" or "Why can't you do this day"...Like come on, I just need to continue my sessions. It's worsening my anxiety and depression. This waiting is.

Hope you don't have to wait too long to see her!

Same. I was finally getting somewhere. It's been two sessions but I finally feel like someone understands me

It's hard to find someone like that. I've had my therapist for about 2-1/2 years. He has seen me through a lot; saw me through a few hospitalizations and helped resolve what was a major issue in my life that caused my decades of depression and anxiety and PTSD. Presently seeing him every other week. He's great about calling back if I leave a message that I need to talk.
I truly hope you get to establish a good relationship with Meredith! It sounds like you already feel comfortable with her. Keep me posted. Feel free to PM me if you want.
