Profile For Jeremy T.

Hi all, this is my first post here. I've thought a lot about becoming an OTR driver over the years, and I've reached a point where I'd like to go for it. I know my prescription meds will be a problem though and I wanted some advice on how to go about things legitimately, even if that advice ends up being to get off the meds before trying this career. I take Trazadone, Seroquel, and Xanax (as needed). I'm taking these for insomnia. While I'd never drive under the influence of these drugs, I understand that a trucking company probably wouldn't see it that way. Based on the research I've done it seems legally speaking I might be able to get a CDL with a doctor's note clearing me to drive, but some (all?) companies wouldn't be willing to hire me since they have their own policies. I know Xanax is the most likely to be an issue, and I'm not sure about the other two. I wanted some advice on how to go about this. I want to do this honestly. It sounds like recruiters from the megas are pretty easy to get ahold of, but I don't know how knowledgeable they are about situations like these. What I don't want is a situation where I end up with a failed drug test on my DAC because I show up for a company's orientation and their policies forbid something that I'm taking. What would you guys suggest I do? Should I try looking for a company that would accept me or is the situation hopeless without getting off the meds?
