i really struggled with school last term. when i came home i got my learning disability testing redone to get accommodations again and went to a psychiatrist (begrudgingly). both agreed that i have really bad adult ADD that's probably just linked to my learning disability. all things considered they were really surprised that i made it this far ( Read more... )

why don't you want to take the medication?

the way that i have to take it and the dose basically guarantees that i'll become addicted. addiction is something that i've struggled with in the past so i guess i'm just a little worried about it. but i think the risk is worth the potential benefit. and i'll only take it for a little over a year with a break during the summer so it should be fine.

thanks!

i guess unfortunately sometimes you have to weigh the risks and it's worth it.have you decided to take it or no?

I know its scary and that your past can haunt you. Just make sure that before you take it you really do your research - both medically and within yourself. Make sure you want to do it. It could make all the dif in the world but you wont know till you try it. And about the training - I am so impressed. You looked great when I saw you. Your gonna look even better and be in shape when you get home. But it might be a close call - your mom is a tough cookie! Keep your head up!!!!
