Posted on Mon, 24 Oct 2016
Question: Hi there,

I recently started school again and am remembering my attention issues that were often a problem in prior schooling years. I had many times been referred to be treated for ADHD but never followed through. Is it possible to speak with someone about medication for ADHD on this site?

Thanks!
