If you can't see yourself being completely honest, don't expect a complete assessment of your condition.
Sobriety is all about honestly - first and foremost with yourself. You will need to do things that you are not comfortable with to be sober ( and I'm not simply referring to a doctor visit either ). You might need to admit some things to a doctor you aren't comfortable with. You might need to attend meetings or other rehab-style programs that you don't really want to. You may need to find other friends or activities to surround yourself with, especially during early sobriety. The bottom line is that truly getting sober is hard - probably one of the hardest things you'll ever do in your life. But it is 100% possible if you do the work. And the reward is worth it many times over.
