Weekly Mental Health Q&A


Monday, October 17th, 2005

“I’ve been taking medication for ADHD since I was in Junior High, and now that I’m in college, I’d really like to be re-evaluated and taken off medication if possible. Could SCRS help me to get re-evaluated, and provide me with support if I end up going off the medication?”

WHAT SCRS CAN DO:

  • Arrange a meeting with a psychiatrist to re-evaluate your need for medication
  • Provide you with a space in which to talk about your concerns regarding being on, or being taken off medication

DISCLAIMER: None of the vignettes are based on actual University of Chicago students or specific incidents. The vignettes suggest possible scenarios but do not represent any particular University students. The SCRS maintains a strict confidentiality policy that is outlined our Policies section.
