Hi, I am desperate. I have been to 4 doctors under my insurance and all have rejected my request because my basic insurance plan only covers AA onsite and meetings with a therapist. I have stopped smoking weed for 4 months and I have stopped hard alcohol for 1 month. It has been been so very hard. I was finally open and honest with my doctors as the AA suggests......... nothing! They all treated me like I was looking for morphine. I even went to a "free" clinic. After waiting over 6 hours to speak with an intake person all I got was an option for detox for 6 weeks and a script for morphine. I asked for TSM, and I was promptly told it was not covered. I asked to speak to an MD. I was told, NO. No reason, i even had the book and some printed out synopsis of the treatment, I was treated like a joke.
So I am begging for help. I want to be my young daughter's mom. I want to be a wife-if my husband is still the right choice after I get some sober time behind me.
I am a stay at home mom who has weekly garage sales to help with the food and bills......... I am stuck. I can't afford to go to doctor to doctor to doctor anymore. I have tried to research TSM friendly docs... nothing really real. Anyone have a doc they can refer? I am in the Bay Area...(San Francisco, San Jose, Newark, and Oakland).

Since i am basically broke I am very very very reluntant to purchase the meds from India or Canada. I would rather spend the $ to get a US script. I can not afford the loss-if it turns out to be one. Serious, we are a beans and rice family living in a one bedroom, and living paycheck to paycheck.
Again....can anybody please please refer me to a doc to write the script?

help please
