Why protective of T?

It's really ridiculous but I must treat my therapist like she's as fragile as pastry. I don't want to email or call , or do anything that's demanding or takes any extra time of hers, for fear that I and the caseload she has will destroy her, make her sick or burn her out. Is this just me? I read where other patients ask for extra time, send long emails, need calls in between sessions. I sure do feel the need for those, but I wouldn't dare, and I even feel suspense that some of you who ask might get in trouble, though I wouldn't know if you would, or not. Will I ever get up the nerve to ask for what I want?
