Long story but not sure what I should do?

So Iā€™ve been seeing the same psych for 5 years kpins Prozac seraquil and was prescribing me every adhd med known for about a year, stimulant weā€™re making me a total mess but I didnā€™t realize what was causing it until a year in of trying the stims, during that time my doc started lowing my kpin dose cause of course with stimulants I was slightly less anxious.

Two month ago I asked to stop with the stimulants none of them have worked right for me, actually they caused more issues then helped and Iā€™ve managed my adhd for my whole life with out them, so weighing pros and cons for me it made sense to drop those meds, now she wonā€™t fix my kpin dose and actually at our last appointment she said I should find a different provider ā€œif all I want is Kolonapinā€ (essentially dropping me) this is an untrue statement think sheā€™s just tying to save face cause the combo of meds she was giving me isnā€™t really a smart thing to do. I was trying to work out a solution a middle ground for the benzos, I wasnā€™t even asking to go back to my full script that I got for 4 years just at least 1/day instead of a half a pillā€¦. My anxiety isnā€™t just magically gone no.

So Iā€™m out of a doctor until I find one and not sure what Iā€™m going to do given the fact that Iā€™ve been on benzos for 5 years and cold turkey really isnā€™t a option, I have two week to find a new doc before I run out.

she basically just left me to fend for myselfā€¦. None of it makes sense never had an issue with her until now, but after our last appointment I donā€™t really trust her regardless of benzos or not she sort of seems uneducated and slightly to emotionally to be a psych doc especially if she thinks she could just stop my benzos with out a proper tapper.

so questions if I go to a new doctor will they continue my same medication? cause thatā€™s all I was asking my doctor to do, just go back to what we knew worked right for years and she just blew up about it, also does a doctor not have any responsibility to the patient when they have been giving known drugs that cause dependency to a patient for 5 years? Can they really just say good luck and bye?
