Meds (Klonopin)
I need some advice what to do. I'm on lithium, have been for a while my levels are perfect, I've been having a really rough time since March when my fiance left me, kicked me out and cut off contact with her kids that I had been helping raise, love and support. I had been able to manage my anxiety without meds for the first time in years and then about 2 months ago I started getting the most vicious panic attacks and now when I get anxious or nervous I start getting itchy, so I scratch. The problem is that I scratch so much that I make sores that bleed and all that. Well I saw my primary because originally I thought it was an allergic reaction, but she said it was probably anxiety related and wrote me a script for klonopin, and told me to see my pdoc for refills. Alright I did that, but I had to sign a drug abuse contract, because I do have a history of using, never addicted. However when my fiance left me I started smoking pot again to manage the depression because my pdoc doesn't believe in anyone who has an affective disorder being on anti depressants, and I just wasn't doing well. Anyway, so he did a drug screen and it came back positive for pot, which I did tell him it would, so now he won't write for my klonopin.
I see my primary today I'm sure when I see her and she sees all the sores she will more than likely write for the klonopin when I tell her my pdoc won't, but what do I tell her ? Should I tell her the truth about why he won't write for them or what should I do. I've been going back and forth about it for a few days.
