I appreciate your thoughts. I find it safest for me to not listen to anyone who, along with truth, sows negativity and untruths. How much poison would you allow in your drinking glass? It's a matter of trust, again, imo. If I can't trust everything I know and hear, I can't trust anything I hear from him.

Isn't that also the way with therapy? How many sessions do we have to hear the truth, over and over, in any way, in all things...before we can trust enough to share our truth? And if we find one item that concerns us with the doctor, doesn't it cause us to pause?
