Suggest Therapy For Alcohol Abuse
I was in residential treatment for addiction and I got kicked out because I tested positive for benzos but I haven't taken any since I did detox back in December, Is there something that can cause a false positive for that the only thing I have taken is advil and my normal meds, Prozac 80 mg, Seroquel 25 morning 25 lunch 50 mg dinner , 150 mg at night, and I also take pariet and Portia as birth control. Could any of those do that. I also had pumpkin seeds that probably the only unusual thing I ate that I wouldn't normally so wonder if that could have caused it. I am devastated I have been working so hard in treatment for five weeks, and it hurts so bad. They say I can reapply in two weeks but if I can't figure out what caused the false positive there's no point going because it will probably show up again and I don't want to get kicked out again. Last night I drank myself into a fizzy because that's all I know how to do when I am that upset which of course brought my cravings up to drink again so ya. Just very overwhelmed and not sure what to do.

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Deaddiction treatment and therapy works only if you heartfully desire to stop your substance abuse. No kidding. I see so many people forcefully enter deaddiction program in a facility. Such people will be successfully complete their therapy period. But once they are out of the facility, the relapse happens.
You need to learn to control your mind and body with the help of yoga and meditation. Slowly reduce the alcohol intake. Then opt for de-addiction treatment and therapy. do not hurry.
