I found my way back here after two years. I hadn't realized that it had been that long. Time is so tricky sometimes. I can't keep track of it. I know this is kind of cliche, but I look at my kids and I don't know how they are suddenly 13 and almost 16. I started coming on here when they were much younger.
Anyway, a lot has happened in the last two years. Yet, looking back on some of my last posts, I feel like I am stuck in the same loop. I am about to do paperwork with my current therapist to get on a wait list for an inpatient program. I hate to be in a place where I feel like I need to go inpatient...again, but I guess it is what it is.
I have been seeing my current therapist for almost two years and it sometimes feels like we're just getting started. I still meet with my previous therapist for telehealth every month or so. I am still allowed to text or email her when I am needing support. The main reason for that is that I can't do that with my current therapist because she works for an organization that frowns upon that. I can message her, but there's no response most of the time unless the reason I am messaging is because she needed me to confirm that I go to my next place safely after therapy when I left after being dissociated.
My current therapist knows that I talk with my previous therapist still and it works. It especially works well when my current therapist goes on vacation or there are holidays on our scheduled day and there are weeks in between our sessions. My therapist only works in the program that I see her through two days a week. That is a hard thing for me because I was used to having sessions two days a week and now it is just one. Some weeks that is enough, most weeks it is not.
Anyway, I really came on to reconnect and to see what other people do when they are feeling stuck in a loop or are not making progress. Thoughts?
