sounds to me like there is something wrong. I think that we need to let our young learn to live as adults and that is for every one with adhd or without and you cant learn to do that if they dont let u make choices for yourself I feel that you need to be able to decide what works for you and what doesnt. I have children one I belive is like me with adhd we are starting the process now he is a good kid and very smart somedays i think smarter than me he has had an iq test in 4th grade and test very high so throwing him into a special ed class would be crazy. as i am sure is for you. hang in there. Can your parents talk to the school or maybe your dr talk to the school could that help.
