Initially, to tell you the truth, I thought it was funny. I imagined my pdoc telling my therapist off in her inimitable way and laughed all the way home. I disagree with my pdoc frequently, but I still gotta respect the fight in her.
However, I am not fond of being pressured into things. That's the last thing that's going to work with me.
My pdoc can be too pushy. After all, it is not her decision to make--though I'll certainly consider her opinion, it might be time to set some boundaries about whether she can pressure me into things.
All of this, of course, is separate from my issues with my therapist.
My therapist left me a message when I didn't show saying she was "disappointed" that I didn't come (nice lukewarm response, there). And then my pdoc left me a message about half an hour later saying my therapist had called her and was concerned, as was my pdoc, and to please give my therapist a call to let her know I was okay. She also said they'd had a conversation earlier in the day. They seem to be working together fine, so I suppose my pdoc's concerns were allayed.
However, I haven't called either of them, because I need a little breather.
