I don't think you are going nuts.... I haven't posted much on this board, but I wanted to tell you my experience with emailing.
My psychiatrist, who was also once my therapist a couple years ago, told me the other day that she would not accept any more emails from me, and that if I sent her any she would delete them without reading them! How's that for being harsh?
Background info: she had taken emails for over a year and answered back; then one day after I started seeing a psychologist in this clinic, my pdoc told me that she wanted me to restrict my emails to medication issues only. Well after such a long time being allowed emails, I slipped and did not keep them to med. issues and she let me.......until the other day. I was a bit taken aback but did not argue the point ......why bother. But I am hurt and I intend to let her know when I see her again the end of this month.
I understand that I broke an agreement but my new psychologist does not do emails and only takes voice mail messages. I was so used to the privilege of emailing my pdoc that I guess I depended too much/took advantage of the privilege. Well she slammed me with that statement!
I am sorry this happened to you. I have also gotten the same statement "I'm sorry you are not feeling well" or to that effect. But I do think that my pdoc cared about me; not sure now!
It sounds as though yours does care. Let us know how things turn out.
