your doc is not caring for you appropriately. Past abuse or no, adequately supervised benzo rx's are appropriate for your situation. My advice: ditch him/her. Start over. Don't mention your drug addiction, don't refer them to anyone who would give evidence of it. Just give yourself a clean slate.
I know this sounds tricky and manipulative but...situations like this make me furious. I think you would do much better with a doc who doesn't mistreat people just b/c they have a history of substance abuse. I also don't think that a history of substance abuse=relapse. So...please; find yourself a different doctor, one who will help you out.
Good luck.
