First of all, I wasn't allowed into my school drama program because the class was completely full by the time I was registered. Therefore, I'm automatically disqualified to audition for any school plays or musicals (My public school is pathetic).
So I met this guy Jason who's the leading actor in the school drama program and the captain of the school Improv Team (currently unavailable for freshman). He's really hot and smart and friendly and a good actor...and he's a senior. Yes, I know I'm a freshman and I don't really have much of a chance because he has female friends following him wherever he goes, and he probably has a girlfriend anyways. But still, I enjoy occasionally talking to him about the school's upcoming theatre events and such when I see him around campus.
Anyhow, about a month ago I started having these drug crashes in class because the dose of my ADHD medication was too high for me. I totally went insane, became very ill (physically and psychologically) and I had to stay home from school for awhile.
I started getting manic highs and lows, and the drug made me say and do all sorts of stupid, embarassing (nothing dangerous, just silly) things without even thinking and I didn't have any control over myself.
So my dad took me to Jamba Juice one day and we were driving through town when I saw him with a large group of his friends in front of a restaurant. On impulse, I opened the car door, popped my head out and screamed "HI JASON!!!" and slammed the door again. Like I said, I was under the influence of drugs that my doctor shouldn't have prescribed and I was not responsible for my behavior. Still, I'm very embarassed.
I'm scared. Does this mean I can never face him again?

No offense, just saying what probably happened. Now, I am quite sure that they are thinking that you are some kind of sped with some serious issues. It isn't right, it isn't fair, and it isn't how you want it to be. But that's what it isn't. What it IS is funny. It's really funny. Just laugh about it and forget it. And for your ADHD, take the proper medicine (make sure) before you talk to him. Just say you had like an ADHD spaz attack. Then laugh about it and be light, not defensive. Just try to be friends, and explain your illness to him, but remember, nobody likes to be under pressure, so be light about it, and never be too serious. Hope this helps!
