Through this whole matter, I've dealt with
*A family practice doctor that would not make any decisions, deferring to my family doctor
*My family doctor that will not make any decisions, deferring to a psychiatrist
*An addictionologist doctor at detox that cut me off from klonopin cold turkey and focused on me being a "pill junkie" rather than focus on my alcoholism which is why I went there in the first place
*A doctor at a psych ward that had no opinion on anything except wanting to keep me locked up in the psych ward for as long as possible
*A psychiatrist that tells me I'm suffering from rebound anxiety and need to change my attitude to get better
*An addictionologist psychiatrist that is focusing on my alcohol problem rather than my pill detox and tells me I need to go to AA to feel betterI am running out of professionals in my area to see. Also, each time I see one of these guys, it makes me feel that there is no hope--that no doctor out there will just listen to me. It makes me not want to try for fear of added despair.
