I think they(PhyDr) know exactly what they are doing.
1) They don't get paid for a phone call.
2) They know that withdrawl is hell and the only solutions either take to long or the quick solutions are addictive (Xanax, ...)
3) Because of #2 above, they avoid talking to you unless you are making them look bad (showing up at the emergency ward with suicidal tendicies which you told the PhyDr. about) in the public's eye.
I think the bottom line is Hell if you do and Hell if you don't. If you manage to get some help from a Dr. it may prolong or delay the enviable.
My best wishes are with you.
