Your fear about calling too much and the being less likely to recive help from them is definitely understandable. You went in person recently, right? Could you try that again? If you’re there in person they might be less likely to put you on the back burner, even if the counselor is with another client at the time.

Is there another resource on your campus that might offer some more support in the meantime? Perhaps a general counseling center? You might be able to talk to someone else in the meantime to help reduce your anxiety.

It’s unfortunate that you can’t ask for resources for a friend. If you do look for resources there, however, maybe they won’t think it’ll impact your job. After all, those resources are available to people who need it and utilizing them and looking after yourself will only help you be better able to do your job. Putting yourself first is a positive thing and hopefully they’ll see that.


If clarity's in death, then why won't this die?
Years of tearing down our banners, you and I
Living for the thrill of hitting you where it hurts
Give me back my girlhood, it was mine first


The axe forgets, but the tree remembers
