I don't think it is a coincidence. I've been researching (of course) and there are a number of studies that point to medication as "threatening to the theraputic alliance." I guess, as in all things, you need balance.
I talked about this with my therapist today. I said I was worried that I was afraid to get better. He said he thought it was more that I was worried about losing him. If I was better, wouldn't that mean I didn't need him? He tried to reassure me that he wasn't sending me away, nor did he wish for me to stop sharing all this pain with him. He was simply wishing for more rest for me. I'm trying to believe him...
