Thanks for noticing the difference.
So my plan is to call some schools when I get off of work. I think it would be better to have a conversation about it. My last offense was alcohol, but in rehab I admitted to using heroin and opana regularly, and in my addendum I stated I was continuing to address my bipolar and substance abuse, How do I write about this? Since everyone wants to know, I went to a meeting with a school official on h, and admitted to it because I thought I wasn't a student. I know it was dumb, but I had a problem and didn't think my inebriation was obvious. All the letter says is "admitted to being high on heroin while meeting with a school official;" I am really embarassed about it and am begging the school to drop it. The school said they want to help and support me vs. punish me.
Thanks for advice, I also emailed my adviser.
First of all, I didn't go data mining for that thread, he did. My original post clearly says c+f OR ps. But disregarding that, is this story fucking serious? Im not going to sugar coat this - you really need to reconsider law school and getting your life on track. Forget just doing H - doing enough H to the point where you can socially function denotes a fucking problem man, even if you don't get caught. The fact that you are so comfortable with doing it that you ADMITTED TO AN AUTHORITY FIGURE that you were on Heroine should really worry you.
And with these details, if you aren't going to listen to that, yes you absolutely need to disclose. You can't rely on every person from the school taking a sympathetic view and sweeping this under the rug, especially with prior history. If it got left on your record or you had to go for rehab/help, the schools are going to find it and it's going to be a metric shit ton worse.
