His doctor refuses to prescribe anything other than Emsam because of his history of suicide attempts (my guess); after he saw me improve dramatically on Nardil he wanted to join the club.
He also confided in me that he used to forge scripts for Xanax as early as 1987 before there were more stringent paper Rx requirements (all California prescriptions now, regardless of Schedule, are on security paper) and never got caught, so his Xanax problem has been long-lasting.
If he regularly does without and consumes them as rapidly as his more recent binge, probably the only reason he doesn't seize is because he is also on Neurontin.
It's kinda sad.
