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?

Yup I tried to go to work this morning but couldn't make it out of the driveway without the car sliding. Pulled back in as far forwards as possible but an hour later the car has slid back down. It was blocking the sidewalk but I don't think anyone is walking around in this mess. I was able to get it back in the driveway when stuff started to warm up a little.
