I expect to get a lot of shit for this, but I'll go ahead and ask; I'm currently attending group counseling sessions for a MJ related DUI and I've probably failed three urine analysis up until now. It says on my treatment plan though that I am not subject to random urine analysis, but they keep making me take them. They give you a pass on the first one, but if you fail consistently, you have to attend more classes or you get non-compliant and have to serve out the rest of your sentence. If I get non-compliant, I have to go to jail for 9 days, get my license suspended for 9 months, etc.

However, I have also been taking Cymbalta for major depression which has given me manic episodes and caused me extreme anxiety that ultimately lead to me experiencing what is called "exploding head syndrome" (i'm not gonna explain it, just look it up if you're interested). Now I fully expect to receive more hours for the counseling, but if I get proof from my psychiatrist that I was manic or even psychotic at the time, could I appeal to the court or whomever so that I might get a less severe punishment? I've already called my psychiatrist to let her know what's going on with me and maybe switching off the drug altogether, but I'm just going crazy rn worrying about what's gonna happen next.
