I really feel for you. Addiction always involves some level of dishonesty, even if it’s only lying to ourselves. Then we get into recovery and do our best to live an honest life. So when someone accuses us of lying (especially about using when we’re clean), it cuts to the bone. Just know that WE believe you and support you, and hopefully your doctor will see by your continued adherence to your program that she was wrong.
Keep doing what you’re doing. YOU know you’re being honest and that will ultimately help you to be successful in your recovery. You didn’t say f*ck it, if she thinks I’m using I might as wll go ahead and use. You are going forward and trying to solve the problem in a logical way, without going off on anybody. Good for you – being able to handle this kind of crap is a sign that you’re healthy and keeping it together.
I hope you stick around the forum and keep posting.
