Hi all. Having a bad night tonight. After working hard to get things together required for my adhd assessment I found out I failed the drug test .. Am I stuck not gaining access to the medication that I feel I need to try due to one positive test?

Hi there,

Thank you for posting here on the Forums. It sounds like it has been a really tough time. Setbacks can feel brutal, especially after you have put so much effort into getting everything in order.

Is there anyone that you might be able to talk about this with for a second opinion or next steps? If you have a regular GP, this could be a good time to talk with them about what is happening. Please know that the Beyond Blue counsellors are here for you as well, and you can call us on 1300 22 4636 any time if you feel like talking it through.  

Thanks again for posting here. You are definitely not alone in experiencing disappointment and setbacks along your mental health journey. We are here to support you along the way. Feel free to fill us in with any updates, too.
 
Take good care of yourself 😊 

Kind regards,
