Give the guy a break. It seems to me he is supporting you in what you said you wanted to do. If what you is for him to tell you that you don't know what you're talking about and to reassure you that things will get better then you need to say that to him instead. And I'm guessing that if he did say those things instead right now you'd be angry that he didn't understand how awful you felt.
You probably aren't in a position to judge what his feelings about anything are right now. Most people would probably tell you not to make big decisions like quitting a job or selling a house in your current state of mind. That goes double for making important judgments about what the people closest to you are thinking or feeling. As impossible as it seems you have to try to keep a little bit of distance from your emotions right now. Perhaps picking a date - after the washout and after time for the nardil to start working - when you will allow yourself to feel these things might help you avoid getting overwhelmed by them right now.
