[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 751528, member: 1967"] Therapists aren't God. There are good ones and bad ones. We have seen our fair share of both. One of the worst was a psychiatric doctor that gave my daughter Ambien samples behind my back (she was only 17 at the time). He was supposed to be an expert in addiction. She took them at work and drove home. When she got home, she told me that she "thought" she had hit something on the way home. I went out and looked and there were scratches and dents all along one side of the car. She couldn't even remember what she hit. I called the doctor the next day and was furious that he gave her Ambien. His reply was, "I didn't think she would take them and drive." Really? An expert in addiction wouldn't know that an addict would take the drugs irresponsibly? You have every right to set boundaries in your own home and the therapist should respect that. Benzos were my daughter's drug of choice. I won't even let a doctor give them to me. I don't want to be anywhere near them. Kathy [/QUOTE]
