No specialist for me- yet

Posted by Poet on November 7, 2003, at 13:13:43

I told my therapist that I felt she was abandoning me if she sent me to the eating disorders specialist. She said she won't abandon me, if I need her I can still see her. Her concern is that I am going to get way out of control and she won't be able to offer the help I need.

Okay makes sense, but therapy is hard enough with one therapist. Not to mention my health insurance only covers six sessions and the therapist has to be PhD or MD. So I'd have to politely say, is s/he a PhD?

It's not a problem now because I haven't binged in a week. I told her I'm controlling it by not eating much and that's worked before. It's okay if I lose weight. That was a mistake as I could read her thoughts: oh, no, she's going anorexic. But she just said, if it goes out of control again, call me.
