Miller,
> After I stared him down a while, I just flat-out asked him if he called the police. I think he was as surprised about them as I was.
Then who did call the police?
>I also asked him why he never called back after think I believe him) that he never got the message and seemed very confused because the message was left at his house #. I think during the conversation he figured out why he didn;t get the message, but never admitted it to me. I left it alone.
Hmmmm...I might press on this just a little bit, only because you need to know if you can rely on him in an extreme situation such as this. But you certainly know him better than I do....if it's better to let it go this time, then skip it.
>He said he is sorry he wasn't gotten ahold of because he understands that I ended up with much more stress and anxiety over all of it.
I'm very glad to hear that he realizes the basic terror of the situation, Miller, and isn't trying to gloss that over in order to "clean up" a bad scene and make it just go away.
>I think he believes because he sees my life as improving and having potential, suicide shouldn't be an option. I am not convinced it works that way.
Suicide happens with people who outwardly are very "successful" -- as we know, it's the inner crap that matters. He oughta know that by now!
>I told him he is wrong and that my thoughts are "Why can't you (my psychologist) tell me HOW to stop the negative thoughts, habits, and reactions?!" Anyway, since I didn't get a clear answer from him, I feel like I am in the same boat.
Now you're asking hard questions! :) But do remember, he may be able to guide you a bit in the answer to that question, but ultimately, pdocs are just that - guides. Take from that what you will.
I hope things are going a little gentler for you now, Miller...keep us up to date.Ginjoint
