Getting it out is a giant first step, and one that I know full well is extremely difficult.
The biggest thing I would suggest is that whatever doctor/therapist you are seeing next, go in with an open mind, and give them some time. A brief talk, or one session isn't likely to fix things. Make it a point to go a few times, and pay attention to what they are saying. It will take them a couple sessions to get a good read on you and what you are facing.
The demons you face are powerful, and from my own experience, will fight you harder than ever as you turn to fight them. But with the support of your friends and family, you will win through.
I wish you the best of luck. It is not an easy fight, but one with a worthy goal.
