Hello everyone. I've been trying to finish my undergrad degree for a long time and even though I was under treatment during my early 20's I still managed to do very poorly academically and put school on hold for about 9 years. I also stopped taking medication around that time until now. My challenges as a student are being unorganized, poor impulse control, poor working memory, and low frustration tolerance. I've been trying to see if I can get an ADHD or accountability group started on campus but I haven't been successful yet. I have been successful with pushing my classmates to form study groups, so I hope this will help. I'm also working on tweaking my medication. I'm currently taking a combination of Adderall, Inderal, and Lexapro. I would appreciate any input on school struggles or how to get a support group started.

I am in the same boat as you. I'm looking for insight as well.
Good luck!
I will say due to a happy accident I stopped taking my Prozac and noticed a boost in the efficacy of
My vyvanse as well as motivation. Have you been consulting with a psychiatrist?
