Chat really helped last night.
I went to therapy and cried for an hour, which helped.
Then stopped my mother's and fought for an hour, which didn't.
I'm trying to balance medications for anxiety against having to be able to work. I'll be careful for a few days to make sure I catch the buildup before it hits critical mass.
My therapist urged me to call him if I needed to, and sounded like he meant it. He offered me an extra appointment, but I've got childcare issues and can't take any extra appointments until school starts. It was nice to hear the offer though. It reminded me that he was available even the day he doesn't work at that office. And he gave me a bolstering hug before I left.
I'm in the ridiculous position of being back to counting down the hours till the next session. :)
Thanks for your good thoughts, everyone.
