Approximately two week ago I had difficulty breathing and my doctor referred me to a cardiologist. I just left the cardiologists office and my head is reeling.

Not to keep this too long I'll try to put it down briefly. The doctor asked me all the standard questions regarding anxiety, caffiene, alcohol, drugs etc. I was quite frank as I was tired of lying to every professional.

When it came to my physical and he pushed up my sleeve he questioned my scars. It threw me totally off balance all of the sudden I was once again a 16 year old sitting in front of my therapist's stubborn intrusive gaze. I told him it's a thing of the past but he didn't let it go. He wanted to know all the answers as well checking me bodily to see if I harmed elsewhere. Then I got a 15 min chat with him regarding getting help for something that's obviously not being addressed. He told me that cardiology always involves 20% psychiatry. He can get me help if I want it. He can do it but I need to be willing.

Question here is do I go for the help he is offering? I'm paranoid. Is he being legit when offering to help me out here. Whether it's getting a doctor or speaking to my stubborn everything is perfect parents. Do I honestly want to start messing with this now in life? What will happen if I allow yet another opportunity to get past me.
I don't really have anyone In irl that I can hash this out with. He's waiting for my response and wants to hear from within 48 hours.
