    ADHD and DODMERB

    Thanks for the replies. Despite the fact that DS would not sign a contract and draw benefits until Fall 2015, at which point he would have been off meds for over 24 months, he has DODMERB paperwork and a requirement to complete med process now.

    Waivers for ADHD

    Waivers for ADHD

    I have seen years of concerned parents asking about waivers for their DS; and years of answers of it depends, case by case, etc. Can anyone step up with success stories and reassure us and our DS' about the prospects or lack of them? We have consistently counseled our own DS, be honest, be...
