(((WhoaPlease)))
Hang in there and kudos to you for taking this positive step forward.
You are certainly not the only one that your therapist will help support and move forward from this addiction.
I think that you would have more to lose than to gain by trying to work through this.
I don't know "what" exactly you are addicted to so I don't want to give either false hope or false alarm as to what exactly the outcome may be.

With my pdoc I am aware of the fact that if I disclose the fact that I am addicted to illegal substances; it is mandatory that she discloses this during the time at which I am taking said substance to the Motor Vehicle Authority so that my licence is suspended. It would have to a substance that without a shadow of a doubt would SEVERELY make me unable / inappropriate to be behind the wheel.
