Obviously the doc is either a sadist or totally ignorant of addiction medication. Of course you are now going to be either back using alcohol & tobacco, those receptors are open & waiting--or back in a fight for your life again to not use. What a drain on your already over-taxed resources.

Most people at this pill mill only get 15-minute appointments, so I'm lucky to still be getting 1/2-hour appointments. It doesn't allow much time for explanations, but last time I did ask why Concerta and not Adderall when I know Adderall works better. I didn't get a reason - I got an Adderall prescription, which tells me that they prescribe by routine.
I don't think it's bad enough to require any kind of meds for addiction. But it is not easy on top of everything else. I think I could handle this just fine if everything else were stable, but it's not.
