#bc she wasn't handling it effectively and wasn't using her team at edcb for support

How much does MN allow you to stay in contact and visit?

It depends on the person and there isn’t a set limit. Soon after I left, I would go 1-2 times a week (once to visit people I still knew there and staff, and once for alumni group) but I didn’t call at all bc I was at EDCB so I didn’t really need that support. Now I don’t normally go to visit bc I don’t know any of the clients anymore so I would feel weird just going to visit staff (although I did go a couple weeks ago to talk to staff bc I was having a really tough day, and there was one time maybe a month and a half ago that I wanted to talk to T so she told me to come that Wednesday since it’s her paperwork day and she doesn’t have any sessions, but that was obviously planned a little ahead of time). I call there maybe once a month but it just depends on what’s going on with me and if I’m able to come to alumni group or not. Every single time I’ve come to visit, no one has ever mentioned anything to the effect of me coming too often and everyone is just happy to see me and I get lots of hugs and questions about how I’m doing. That’s specifically why I went that one day that I was struggling bc I needed some physical affection so I stopped by and probably got hugs from 5 different people including the clinical director who gives the BEST hugs and they just let me sit and cry. I am honestly so incredibly grateful that I was able to go to MN and I know I always have their support if I need it.
