What can I say - the doctors in my area are ignorant. It seems to be a theme around here as I called and spoke to a lady at the hospital too. They will watch you and IF you actually go into a siezure or something 9and they happend to be nearby and notice) they will call somebody (no doctors in the mental patient area). It is the same at both hospitals near here. They will give libriium for long term alcohol withdraw - well this is just like that! I tried calling all the options I could think of today. If I could get some valium on the street i would - don't know where to get any. Once when i could that did make things a lot easier (before I got to this point). IF I can get past this I will never let myself be in this situation again but I seem to be out of options as far as doctors, am broke for a while , etc. This lady doctor would not even give me a script for serequel! She wrote one for Trazadone (ick!). About a month ago I tried to get into a pychiatric office here (before this crisis) and they would not see me because I have a past debt with them from years ago. I called a fancy treatment center out of state that does do humane detox but again its all about the money. People's lives are only as worth as much money as they can raise nowadays. If anyone could get me a hold of some valium that would certainly help! I'm out of options and have this next week, starting Tuesday scheduled for detox here at home with my dog.
