> Your pdoc is quite matter of fact about many things, which I think from your posts over time you appreciate about him, really :-)

He is. One of the first things he told me, when we started, was that he was very straightforward. And he is, has always been. I've told friends and even my DBT therapist things he's said and they all say -- wow! He is so straightforward!

I like it about him. It forces me to be straight forward myself. Once, when I denied, then admitted using drugs, a few weeks after I started seeing him (I went to him because I was addicted and then became depressed once I stopped), he just said, if you're not being honest with me, you're not being honest with yourself. I found that very helpful. I went home and flushed the rest of the drugs down the toilet.
