You are right --- her inquiries did feel a little like criticism. And I kept waiting for her to reach out and help me feel better, help the tears come, but she seemed to take on a different persona.
And she missed things too. On Friday when I confirmed the cancellation of Monday's appointments, a tear streamed down my face. My breathing became uneven and I was holding back so much emotion. She didn't say a word. Wouldn't that be an obvious therapy 101 question, "Do you have any fears or concerns about cutting back to 2x a week?" --- say or ask something!! Show concern. Realize how hard this is for me!!
I'll hold all these thoughts with me when I go in on Friday. I just hope the words come out.
