Thank you mdnt rain, no i am not a minor, I did not have an awareness at the time it was a complete shock ,it is with hindsight i can see that he was just doing his job,he did not break confidentiality lightly i guess he felt he had no choice .it just did not feel like it to me at the time . guess my issue is that it has been so hard to be open and honest and i did so after telling him that my biggest fear was him involving others in my care , this is exactly what he has done.
