I want to say I'm glad you called the doctor. There is nothing wrong with getting a little help when you need it.
You are right in one way, he could just be doing this to help you get over it. But you could be wrong and it may be something he really is open to. Unfortunately, you won't know until some time passes, until you have been to the counseling and until talking starts to happen.
You are not feeling any different than most of us when we came here. So keep posting. Just write journaling on the top if you are just writing to get it out. That is an extremly important thing. You won't find all of the answers here as there is no one quick fix. But you will get support, ideas, understanding and a whole bunch of other things that will help you. Right now you are gonna hear a lot of GAL, goals, etc... At the beginning that is the most important thing and eventually it just becomes a part of you.
I wish that I could tell you this will all be fine tomorrow. I wish I could tell you that all marriages get worked out. But I can't. What I can tell you is this--you will be stronger. You will learn a whole bunch about yourself. You will be happy again. You will survive. Regardless of the outcome of what is happening in your marriage right now. Additionally, you may not get the answers you are seeking in therapy. It doesn't always happen. If you believe in God or a higher power, pray. Pray for strength and patience.
Good luck and keep posting.
If you focus on the past, you ruin the future. You can only live for today.
