However, and please know I'm not trying to be hurtful, merely honest. You had an entire year on campus and you got to know some actives. You're worried they think you're stuck up, so I assume you didn't approach them to explain in a private, less intimidating setting. You should have. Then they could have presented it to their sisters. That would have been far easier then trying to explain in the 15 minutes of a 1st round party to someone who doesn't know you and has no reason to go out on a limb for you. What may happen now is if your rusher explains your condition to the chapter, those who know you respond "I've known her over a year and she never even bothered to tell me any of that."

I do wish you luck.
Thanks... I haven't really gotten to know anybody at my school, I just have a few acquaintances, you know, people you say "hi" to but don't really talk to. So hopefully they won't be offended if and when they find out my condition. I am not at a big SEC school or anything, I am at an itty-bitty private school where 99% of pledges got their top choice sorority this year, so hopefully it won't be too competitive/intimidating?

I am getting help, it took me a while to get up the courage but I started seeing a personal counselor who recommended that I try medication... by the way has anyone had an experience (good or bad) with medication for drugs that affect your behavior? I am trying to weigh the pros and cons, I just want to hear some real-life experiences with them.
