I'm going through this myself too. I "turned myself in" and went on suboxone in December. I had no idea that this would include my having Xanax taken away from me. I never took Xanax on a regular basis. In fact several times, my doc told me I wasn't taking it ENOUGH. I have never been addicted to Xanax. But now that I'm on suboxone, they won't give me Xanax, and my life got worse, in other ways, since going on the suboxone. I have learned how things change...you go asking for help, just to find that you will be black listed as an addict. I was only addicted to pain meds, NOTHING else. Didn't drink, smoke pot, or do ANY other drugs at all. Just hydro or oxy. Suboxone has saved my life. I'm off the pills, and doing fine that way. But life throws constant curve balls that I'm having a hard time dealing with, and my anxiety has taken over my life. But, now I'm an addict. So I don't think I'll be taken seriously. Good luck. Believe me, I'm right where you are.
