I have had ADHD from the age of 11. Took medication till I was 17. In the past 3 years (I am 32 now) I have retaken medication to see if it helped with my sleeping and attitude. (Maybe 3-4months of medication over 3 years)
I was denied due to taking medication from 2000 till Jan 2015. I think they just misread the information that was given.
I took the denial letter to the doctors as per the Medical Officers suggestion. My doctor seen the letter and clarified the situation medically and physically. Stating I was only on medication temporarily and that I do not require doctor visits. I maybe see her 1-2 times a year but 80% of the time its because I am actually sick.
I have been basically off it for 15 years and have achieved graduating with honors from alqonquin college and currently working in a machine shop producing Fracture Critical aircraft components.
I have been off the medication 100% since January and have submitted my letter and hope for a review of it and I will see what happens from there.

I was told my medical will stop my file from ERC if it does not pass. However it was denied after ERC and the Recruiting officer had no idea of that. I also tried contacting him 30 days prior leaving 3-4 messages and it took him a month to even call back after getting my papers back from ERC.
