For anyone who has ever started meds, or especially switched/added meds...
Did you feel really weird in the first week or two of the switch/addition? Because aside from just the expected headaches/nausea/etc, I've just been feeling odd. Happy, at moments, but generally... troubled. On edge, not suicidal but sure am thinking about it a lot.... gah. Not fun at all. And horrible timing. Its the middle of the semester, I have exams and projects and no time to sit down and wait for my body to straighten itself out. But I bet "unstable moods due to a change in medication" wouldn't fly as an excuse for missing my physics exam tomorrow.

I've never been on meds but I've heard that the first 2-3 weeks on meds often have weird side effects

Believe it or not, "unstable moods due to a change in medication," as you put it, WOULD fly as an excuse. You could even get a note from your doctor to prove it if your professor doesn't trust you. Seriously, I just missed a MAKE-UP exam for instability, and my teacher has been fully understanding and accommodating. Talk to your teacher, and if he/she says no, go over their head, because it's a totally valid excuse.
Good luck with your transition, and I hope you start feeling back up to speed soon =D ![]() ~TheDeliciousDish |

I agree with thedelciousdish, I think that you have a valid excuse for being late on assignments. Med changes can be so rough. ![]()

yup. check around at your school, between the counseling department and the disability one you should be able to find accommodations for this problem.
