>>> I got shocked into reality when he asked me to go to a pdoc.

I know this feeling...we so quickly go to the place that says, "I knew it! I AM too much for him!" I had the same reaction when mine suggested finding more support and medication for sleeping. I think you have to think of him as your team leader...organizing anyone who might help you but remaining in charge of your treatment. Different strengths, you know?

I've always been impressed that you talked about your past, however briefly, on intake with your therapist. It took me months to even hint that something had happened to me. Since you were able to do this with your therapist, it seems logical that you can do it even more broadly with a pdoc. They must respect your confidentiality.

I think exploring extra help (medications) is a good idea. You don't have to be completely sold on the idea but you've been pretty down and this might help. I'll be interested to know how it goes.
