Re: what can I do?

I don't know what DSPS stands for, but I think your first steps should be to contact your school's student health clinic and the Dean of Students. Find out if the Dean's office has a division for students with disabilities--at my school, it's called "Student Disability Resources." There's a specific procedure for documenting a disability--and I should think a pain disorder that requires the level of medication you have counts as a disability! You may not have documentation on file with them now, but it seems like a good idea to get the ball rolling as soon as possible to establish that you are taking this medication on a doctor's orders.

A lot of the information on my school's Disability Resources page seems to be geared toward students with learning disabilities or mental illness, but between your student health center and the Dean of Students office, surely someone can point you in the right direction and maybe take on some of the legwork.

Your professor sounds like an insufferable jerkass, by the way. He's late, so he berates the class to distract them from his being a flake? Ugh.

Oh, sorry, DSPS is "Disabled Students Programs & Services" at my college. I'm looking at their page right now and it is pretty vague but based on individual assessments, but they should be able to point me toward how to document my medication, because you're right -- I should get the ball rolling. I'm most worried about protecting myself.

I had to wonder if my professor was late because he was gearing up for his rant. But he couldn't have known until he got to class? It was so weird. And, it was highly unusual he was late in the first place.

Thank you for your reply <3
