Medical with ADHD

[Zac Runyon]

Hey all. I’ve had ADHD my whole life was diagnosed at a young age in school however stopped medication over 6+ years ago. I disclosed on my physical I have this disability and I’ve been on a over a year battle with the medical department in Oklahoma. I have had drug tests neurophysiological testing. The whole nine yards and they still come back asking for more information. I call every week and they only state it’s under review. I’ve been waiting over a year to just get a 3rd class for my PPL. Any advice or tips or stories of similar situations would be a great help. I am on the step where the air surgeon is reviewing it. Thank you. It’s been over 3 months seen I’ve heard anything from them last.

If you are working on your private, you can learn a lot about flying from flying gliders, which does not require a medical. And then do a power add-on later.
