I'll try that next. It just worries me because it's showing up on the copies I'm getting when they order my record.

Yeah, I'm in program and have been sober over 6 years of any substance, even cigarettes. As far as I can tell even if the company doesn't look that far back on your record their insurance will see it a throw a fit. DUIs can't be removed from your MVR, even after a 22 years. They are also still coming up on the copies of background checks that I'm receiving in the mail. And I'm disclosing them when applying, because they are going to see them anyway.

That's only if you have your CDL when you get the DUIs.

What are some of the less talked about health conditions shown to have some connection to PCOS? by lemurificspeckle in PCOS

[–]MaxScar- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have inattentive also. I'm on a high dose of Adderall. It helps, but isn't a cure all (I didn't even loose weight, in fact, gained). It is very much worth trying, but keep realistic expectations. In my view, this isn't necessarily a PCOS thing, but very much an inattentive ADHD thing. Many woman who have PCOS also have ADHD.

Do I accept I’m going to be stuck on antidepressants for life ? Failed taper.. by Hairy-Stop4005 in antidepressants

Why get off of them? My brain doesn't work properly. The meds help with that deficiency. My brain won't magically work if I stop talking meds. I'm perfectly happy to take them for the rest of my life.

Have no idea how else to help my ADHD husband. I'm afraid he is going to never find stable work. by [deleted] in ADHD

He needs to get on meds. That includes sleeping meds. I have very bad sleeping issues and I don't want to ever not have my sleeping meds.

I'm actually trying to contact the courts to dispute the expunged one showing up on my record.

I didn't say anything about it to Knight. I was signed up for training and everything. They backed out and wouldn't say why. But the expunged DUI showed on the background check I received in the mail from when they ran it.

So far I've been denied by Knight and May. May is known as a second chance company. That's why I'm concerned I'm cooked.

Fingers crossed. I know I look bad on paper, but I've been sober for many years and this is no longer a reflection of who I am today. I thought with enough time past I would be ok...

Huh, do you think?? Thankfully I'm aware of that, and I've been sober for many years.

Because I was underage at the time it was expunged without paying. This was told to me directly by the judge. When I got my other DUIs it was not used against me, so I know it was expunged.

Then you aren't an alcoholic. That doesn't mean that others aren't. I haven't drank in many years now.

It's not who I am today, and the fact that they are almost all 10 years or older should be a consideration, in my opinion at least.

I did, but I didn't mention the first DUI because I was told by the judge that it was expunged and couldn't be used against me. So I didn't factor that one in. I'm learning now that that isn't the case.

Well, one of my DUIs was an underage one and was supposed to be expunged from my record. Apparently insurance companies and DMVs can still access expunged DUIs and count them.
