Oh, Daisy, we had the most difficult beginning. I was just trying to get started, and figure out if he was a good therapist for me, and he kept LEAVING! Three one-week absences, and one two-week one between March and August. Then there will be another week away over Thanksgiving and two over Christmas. I don't know why he takes so many. It kind of looks like he has children on vacation, coming home, but I don't know. I do know that when he is working, he works very long hours- about ten a day. And, if I ask about why he's away so much, I still won't know! He'll never say.
I find the absences terribly hard, too; I long for him, and count the days until I'll see him again. I don't melt down, exactly, but I do want so much to see him again. This goes for weekends, too. Then, of course, when I actually get into his office, I'm terrified of what I will feel or say! I instantly forget about how much I have missed him. I never think to say that, but I probably should.
