Disclosure of arrest required or no?
I am prescribed Vyvanse as needed for ADHD. I do not abuse the medication and an RX lasts over two months. Last month I was detained by campus police for a fake id they found in my wallet (left it in a lab and the lost and found people turned it in). Now, I was super impulsive and had accepted a free 20 bag of methamphetamine from a friend the previous day. Was curious more than anything-- didn't use it yet. Long story short I got ended up with POCS II.
Do I have to tell my Psych I was arrested
