I AM A 55 YEAR OLD MALE DIAGNOSED TWO MONTHS AGO WITH ADD BY A PSYCHIATRIST. ALL MY LIFE I MADE MY LIVING BY
MY WITS, AS IN HMMM…. DON’T ASK. QUESTION: I AM TRYING TO ATTEMPT MY GED (HIGH SCHOOL) TEST BUT REQUIRE EXTRA
TIME ON THE TEST AS IN I HAVE TO TAKE XTRA TIME TO ASSESS THE QUESTIONS. GED HAS A FORM WHEREBY YOUR DR.
CAN SPECIFY THAT YOU NEED X-TRA TIME. ANYONE ACTUALLY SEEN THIS FORM ???? EASIER TO FIND BIN LADEN OR RAID
FT. KNOX, THEY WANT DOCUMENTED PROOF OF THIS DISABILITY BEFORE AGE 12, THEY DIDN’T EVEN RECOGNIZE IT BACK
THEN, PLUS IT WOULD PROBABLY TAKE A PSYCHIATRIST AN HOUR TO FILL OUT THE FORMS AND WHO PAYS FOR THAT ??
YOU DO $$$$$ DOES THIS SOUND FAIR ?? DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE WITH EDUCATION/ADD “ACCOMODATION”
AND ONES LEGAL RIGHTS ???? i DO NOT WISH TO ABANDON MY GOALS BECAUSE OF HAVING IMPOSSIBLE, UNNECESSARY,
EXPENSIVE, BEUROCRATIC HURDLES PLACED IN THE WAY OF MY PROGRESS ….
