It's not easy getting prescribed anything of addictive potential when you have a history of alcoholism and benzo abuse. I saw a nice doctor today and got scripts for my ezcema. Then, I mentioned the fact that I had been waking up at 1-2am and it was affecting me badly. I said that I'd had Zopliclone 11 years ago, and he prescribed me 2 weeks worth of 3.75mg. Not a massive dose, but some doctors can be understanding.  :)

 
It's a nightmare. Even when you have mri scans to prove degeneration of your spine. The gp cut me off tramadol instantly when she knew I was addicted! And a few years after the drugs support worker went behind my back and told my  gp to cut me off again! The first dr I went to help for told me not to come back as he has patients on palitive care to see.

very bad experiences. So went private to a great clinic in London that prescribe subs. 

Good luck

 
@ElectroNymph I have the same as yourself, my uk doc gave me one year of zopiclone last week but every 3 nights, its rubbish anyway. I basically said that they got me in the mess and should take some responsibility, and if he didn't do something, I would self medicate, of which I did in any case. I just can't sleep or relax after 5pm.

I had a repeat prescription of tamazipam in 2003 for 5 years then I went on vals, mogs, mists, beta blockers then every z drug. I came off booze in 2008 with librium but took anti histamines since. I said to my doctor, try looking at the ceiling all night for a week and see if you wouldn't try to do something about it.

your really on your own and doctors have a budget, try a private doc, they will most definitely give you 7.5s zops but only 28

 
It's all about honesty and being forthcoming. Docs/pharmacies these days can look up past controlled substance refills at pharmacies (in the US) but if you explain to you doc you've had problems with a specific substance they will sometimes understand you may need other controlled meds since they are the only ones that seem to work. I can speak from personal experience. Years ago I broke my wrist in several places and was on hard core narcotics for years. Eventually they wouldn't prescribe any more which led to massive doctor shopping. Some years have passed and I still suffer from ADD and severe anxiety/panic attacks. I've successfully obtained scripts for both Adderall and Klonopin. I only see two docs (who know about each other) and no longer doctor shop like I used to. This way, if they do check the Prescription Monitoring Database they can see I am telling the truth. To this day I stay away from any opioid medication. If I don't, I'll likely lose my other scripts.

@ElectroNymph I see a cpn monthly for a reduction m/done script.My old cpn/doc was the head of the department and I would say I was having trouble with sleep atleast 4 times a year.They often say your best with older doctors and in my case that was correct as he gave me 7-14nights treatment of zop 7.5mg when I asked for them.Now I have a new cpn after my other cpn retired and she gave me relaxation paperwork to follow before bedtime instead of any z sleep meds 😤. Bliss.....

  1. ontovzik @ ontovzik: When I had long term shingles, lasting two months. All he could give me was a 10 day supply of dilaudid. He looked at the ground while we were talking about it. I could tell he was ashamed but it was the legislature and the governor that tied his hands. He was very upset that non-medical political people, the media, and the scared public were controlling how he treated his patients. Someday those people will need meds and a hospital bed and they will be gone.
  2. ontovzik @ ontovzik: I had a great doctor, he had the true gift of a healer and he stayed on top of all the science. He straight up told me that for many people opiods work for managing short and long term pain.
  3. ontovzik @ ontovzik: He peed it in the snow in my backyard.
  4. WTF7218 @ WTF7218: @xenxra 😆😂. Yes, but only a few brave souls will ever find the number. You must first order a Dirty Shirley from the bartender. Then you must discreetly take the cocktail napkin from under your drink and unfold it. There you will find the map to the location of the phone number, and clues to decipher the code that it is written in.
  5. xenxra @ xenxra: he left his phone number scribbled in a stall at the pub three blocks down
  6. aBBazaBBa123 @ aBBazaBBa123: @rockychoc How do I contact you?
  7. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar I would try one of those easy online ones .. reddit gives useful info about that
  8. Alkazar @ Alkazar: @NYStateofMind I dont really have a history of abusing things, my docotr is just really stingy. I am thinking of switching.
  9. C @ Cheesus: Thanks xenxra
  10. xenxra @ xenxra: @Cheesus yeah, use snote
  11. P @ psychedpsych: Trump is cracking down….
  12. P @ psychedpsych: Hackers are the scum of the earth
  13. N @ NYStateofMind: so it was easy bc of my history
  14. N @ NYStateofMind: I didnt really tell him but he knew I needed a new script since my dr went to jail
  15. N @ NYStateofMind: @xenxra I was on Adderall since 15 years ago so my dr prescribed that w no problems and then when I lost my best friend my doctor rxed the valiums but
  16. C @ Cheesus: Temp.pm down for anyone else?
  17. xenxra @ xenxra: @NYStateofMind my doctor's have always been pretty open minded if i can actually come in and explain the pharmacological action of the drugs im seeking instead of just telling them why i think i should be prescribed. the only time it didn't work out for me is when i was trying pharmaceuticals for depression ten years ago and suggested they let me try testosterone instead (turns out i was hypogonadal so they made a mistake denying my request at face value)
  18. T @ Testisthebest: Even down here in Florida when the pill mill docs all switched over to Suboxone and/or retired you can still find some pretty liberal docs but you gotta know what to look for. Mine does "pain management, detox, anxiety,etc. And no insurance. My doc writes me 60 5mg Valium, 14 2mg Xanax and asked if I had ever tried adderal to get more focus at work as I told him I run my own business.
  19. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar do they know your history? Like I dont tell my doctor anything about myself except what they need to know,...I was able to get my dr to rx the highest dose of adderall along with valiums ..... if they dont know your history or there is no history I would just come out and ask what is the reason for their mistreatment.... they have no problem billing your insurance or taking a payment for the visit
  20. T @ Turbo259: @Layne_Cobain Thank you fam
