Default Coming off Benzo's

Hi, I have a question I'm hoping someone can answer. I have been on xanax for at least 3yrs for anxiety and Klonipin for about 2yrs for Trigeminal Neuralgia. my problem is I had to get a new primary dr. and no one will prescribe the benzos to me. That's fine I have been going thru some serious withdrawel from not having any and I got online and re3searched that you weren't supposed to go cold turkey with them but titrate down. Fine but no one will prescribe them to titrate down with, they are all afraid of them. I can't get in to see a psych dr. until March 15th and I don't see pain management till Jan. 15th so does anyone have an idea who or what I can do? I've already missed my grandaughters 1st trick or treat and Thanksgiving cause I have been sick from detoxing. I'm afraid xmas will be the same. I also read that detoxing from these can take 6 months to a year and sometimes longer. Got to do something it's not getting better but worse as time goes by, so any suggestions?
