| My counselor mentioned thaat I had adhd and had some problems fitting it and some medication problems, but she didn't go in deth to talk about how one year I was overmedicated to the point of sedation, which made impaired my ability to concentrate worse than normal adhd (i was given over twice the average dosage of a medication.
) this was after they discovered midway through freshman year (through a psychiatric examination carried out at the university of chicago hospital) that the medication i had been using before had virtually no effect. Then sophmore you they took the same medication down to well below the reccomended dosage and gave me anti depression medication which combined worsened my hyperactivity and gave me anxiety attacks often, some f which I ahd to be removed from school, until junior year when they gave me the normal dose and removed the anti depressants and my grades jumped from bs and cs to all As, I'm getting a recocmendation from my educational therapist and my adhd dr. explaining the medication. I've also been named a national merit finalist if that has any weight. |
