I am beyond anxious. I am afraid.

I have just discovered, upon being directed to sign various waivers, that my veterans' affairs Canada case worker, my psychologist, and my psychiatrist will all be communicating with one another and the idea makes me more than just nervous. I have no option to refuse this. It is a requirement of my case with veterans' affairs. This is more than simply communicating that I am attending my appointments, this is full disclosure of my entire files and sessions.

Why does this scare me?

I had to face scrutiny and judgement already - from my psychiatrist and from various stages throughout the application process of a claim to VAC. I just don't like the idea of being judged yet again. In the back of my head I can't help but panic that the psychologist will deem me not sick enough and my claim will be reversed and denied. I am sick about this.

Has anyone gone through something even remotely similar?

I have never faced this particular situation, but I can totally understand your fear of being judged by professionals. My thoughts goes to you
