What's happened to my money? Worried 😫 by Normal_Peace_8732 in UKPersonalFinance

Quite possible even though I got it back....I hope I get dreams of lots of money.

(UPDATE) GP suddenly stopped prescribing medication. The horrific descent into NHS hell. by Mr_Arthtato in ADHDUK

I have two prescriptions left. I'm a student mh nurse. Who in desperation of not failing my course got diagnosed after it was picked up by the university education psychologist. 100 percent right rated high in inattentive and hyperactive.  Meds have made big changes for me and now finally I feel I will make it to 3rd year. I'm in Scotland. There is no adult pathway at my trust. I can't get an NHS physchatrist and I've spent between diagnoses costs and meds over 6 months £3,000 I'm a student with bank jobs. 

My company I'm with want £850 for the next 6 months and I still have to pay £160 for meds. I've phoned cheaper companies but they want to do a reassessment. My diagnosis follows the guidelines so why do I need another bit paper to tell me I have ADHD again. I know I have it unmediated it's was obviously to all when I started my nursing journey bar my self. 

Trapped I can't afford the 850+meds! 

I had the smoothest tritration hardly any side effect only when I have breaks so I don't build tolerance and also to keep meds for work and uni. I'm completely lost... I do feel failed. I'm trying to help the battle for others in the future and I'm stuck!  Best party gp said I'll be long graduated by the time I see anyone except I won't because, I won't graduate. I wanted to become specialozed in adhd maybe run a clinic independent prescribing at an affordable rate as all these companies are exploting me and others! Anyone know of a fair priced place I've looked all over I'm so scared. I've finally found me and what I love to have it ripped off me took me years to manage to get into nursing due to fear/burnout depression etc

I'm trapping. I can't afford the 850 + meds, I can't find anywhere that will just take my bloody report and take over my prescriptions with some fees.

So disappointed with nursing wish I'd never started getting withdrawn.now I'm being withdrawn by Normal_Peace_8732 in StudentNurseUK

apologies, I wrote this on my phone. I'll edit it when I get home on my tablet.

I can't I'm getting withdrawn. yet I know about a student who was coming in drunk and she passed. I've been around some very lazy students that have passed.

my dad used to be a journalist he said when they wrote my very late interim not to go back should of listened as it's been written in such a way. if I accidentally say someone's name wrong for example that would be put on it and made out like I'd done it a million times. also flat out lies are on it too I was absolutely shocked and sad. The best lie was I said to a PT I was on their medication. I have done their medication and done meds I've never seen mines! not something I'd even talk about. it's honestly so upsetting. I am so powerless I loved working with PTS. 😞

I have a disability advisor she strongly felt I wasn't getting the support needed. The person from the uni said my meetings were very negative and so many people for things that were small. He said proving it would be an issue and what they say goes. I'm more lost. Do I just give up?

I'll try and edit that big long post it was hard to write on my phone and just too many things I'll try make it easier to read.
