Sounds like you need to change doctor. I couldn't talk to my last doctor despite having felt suicidal for quite a while. The new doc is much better.
I suppose its all about trust. I didn't trust my old doctor enough to be able to open up without the fear of feeling stupid or silly, or that people would think less of me.
You need to find someone you can trust to talk to in that way. In some ways its easier with complete strangers as your subconcious opinions are not formed yet.
I still find it easier to type my thoughts here to people I in all honesty really don't know well, than so called friends. Even my family and work colleagues don't know.
Fears work in strange ways. the only way I rationalise it is that essentially it doesn't really matter if I became too ashamed to face people on this or other websites as i don't live with you. Where as with people I know I still think they will think less of me or be dissapointed or not understand.
