I would tell the truth about what you are experiencing so your psych can help you. I've had docs "suggest" I go into the hospital, but I refused after seeing my mother in & out of mental instituitions when I was growing up. A trip to the hospital would mean I was as bad off as she was. I already identified with her too much, to the detriment of my self esteem. I also witness some of the horrors of the hospital (this was in the 60's & 70's so I'm sure they are much improved). Plus she had ECT & was scaring me cuz she didn't know who I was.
I really think you need to tell the whole truth to you doc in order to get help.--Suzy
