Will My Psychologist Tell My Parents About Past Drug Abuse?

Question by thisisnotsurreal: Will my psychologist tell my parents about past drug abuse?
I have recently decided to stop smoking marijuana. I am completely decided and have no desire to do so. I do not have it readily available, almost none of my friends do it anymore, and I do not have any way to obtain it.
I’m going to a psychologist tomorrow, and he knows my parents, though I know that is of little influence when it comes to confidentiality. My problem lies with my addictive behavior, be it a woman, pot, or anything else that makes me feel good, so basically I definitely have to tell him about my year long abuse of marijuana to explain why I found out I wanted to change.
