Oh, Knothead, that's hard. I remember when I finally called my T to see her again after 9 years and was all excited about finding/getting in touch with her again and she couldn't see me for several weeks until she came back from a vacation.

I don't think it matters that you're self-medicating for other problems, the addiction T can help you with the whole ball of wax so you don't need the Benadryl.
