Am I Over-reacting?

Thanks that definition hit the nail on the head. I grew up in a chaotic alcoholic home where nothing was anyone else's business and everything stayed in the family. So it was never okay to let on what a mess it really was and NEVER okay to ask for help. Some things are hard to let go of...thank you all for being here!
 
I can cope with holidays if I know and can plan for them. What I do have a hard time with is if T cancels suddenly, he has done it once when he was ill. Yes I wanted him to recover and I was grateful he wasn't passing germs onto me but I psyche myself up and the cancellation felt as if a safety blanket had been ripped from me.

If I have warning he is away, I as has been said above concentrate on grounding techniques, setting small goals and of course spending lots of time here chatting to friends
 
Kimba - If my therapist did that I'd freak out!! but I think he knows that. When he's gone on vacation and he knows I'm having a hard time he's called me to see how I'm doing.

I wonder why she didn't at least leave a name of someone who is covering for her or what you are suppose to do in an emergency?

We are here for you. Feel free to pm me if you need to talk.

Hugs. Heather
