today was supposed to be my first day of therapy and the therapist didn’t show up. I’m pissed off. I wasted 2 hours for nothing.

I’ve sent her a polite message, asking if she’s sick and hoping she is well, but in reality I wanted to yell at her. However, if I yell at her, chances are she won’t treat me.

Before you suggest to find another therapist, finding a shrink where I live is very difficult and the other ones I contacted have either ignored me or are overbooked. I need therapy and it bothers me to be so dependent on one person.

For those of you who have experienced something similar, how doesn’t it bother you?

      Plenty of mental health issues present with anger as an initial response to perceived negative situations. Maybe that’s why op is seeking help.

        That is exactly why I’m asking. Years ago I had problems with anger. Luckily going to university helped with that. Don’t know how but it helped me.
