Oh hey that’s the article that lead to me getting diagnosed! I read this right after coming back to work after a long COVID furlough. I had been finding it really hard to be back at work and was seeing a therapist for depression (again) then read this and realised that it had actually definitely been ADHD the whoooole time and the current problem was the complete atrophy of all my coping mechanisms after so much time not using them.

Depending on how long it’s been since you’ve played, they’ve changed the rules probably like between two and five times since then, so you’d have to learn how to play pretty much from scratch anyway!

I’m an Elvanse (Vyvanse for Americans) user, unfortunately. I don’t tolerate Methylphenidate well (they made me try like four different versions of it first before they’d give me the Elvanse) and as far as I know there is a shortage on just about all Dexamphetamine based medications.

The medication shortage has had me acutely aware of my ADHD this past month, does that count?

As far as I can tell, the “problem” is that the dresscode states that the student’s hair can’t extend below his eyebrows or ear lobes “at any time”. So, hypothetically, if this student took his hair down out of the braids, it would be longer than the dresscode allowed.

This, of course, is fucking stupid reasoning. The school probably just doesn’t like this hairstyle - because racism - and is choosing to use an overly literal reading of the rule to try to force the student to change it.
