It's really hard to accept, but I think there comes a point where you just kind of have to say to yourself - "they are being nice and I can accept that without feeling guilty or undeserving." I've found that the more I tell myself that, the more I start to believe it.
It's just so what I'm not used to. My experience with most Pdocs/Ts has been either complete incompetence, overreaction, underreaction, abandonment or abuse. Now I have this awesome Pdoc who's really pulling out all the stops to try and help me and it's like *stunned* Whaaaa???? How the hell did I get this? Why me? I'm nobody, go help someone else who deserves it.

I know logically that's not a healthy way to think and I deserve help as much as anyone else, but I'm just not used to having a Pdoc who is this good at doing his job to the point that he goes above and beyond for his patients.

I think this might be something I need to work on.
