Health professionals are rarely your friend. They have an agenda, even if they don't know it, based on their education and the agenda of their professors and mentors. The more you exercise your personal freedoms, such as not to vaccinate, not to participate in annual exams, etc... the more they are on alert and ready to classify you as neglectful or abusive. They often think they have divine knowledge and that all that contradicts this knowledge is evidence of ignorance and justifies suspicion. Don't ever tell them you are down, depressed, or anything that could be used to categorize you. Don't tell them you own firearms. Don't talk about your spiritual beliefs or your parenting techniques. They are under pressure to collect demographic and medical/psychological data to cover their own rears if problems occur down the line. It sucks to have to be distrustful of people who might have answers to your problems, but you must be wary and informed else they can open a nasty can of serpents. Thank you for sharing this lesson... we all need to be on our toes.
