  1. Need advice on how to go about obtaining medical marijuana card

    If you seem impaired in any way and they drug test you even if it's medical marijuana they will say you have a SUD and you'll be reported. In NY they don't test for THC.
  2. Monitoring Program

    3. Better than 5 but not as good as 2. I wouldn't have done 5 years. I almost said no to 3 years
  3. Monitoring Program

    It's ridiculous, I couldn't agree more. I don't have a SUD either. At least you only got 2 years if it's any consolation.
  4. Obtaining NP and DEA license after IPN

    The questions on license applications vary by state. Some states ask if you have an addiction or mental health issue that impairs your ability to practice safely, for those you can answer no. For other states where it's worded differently you need t...
  5. Recovery- PEth test

    It goes back 28 days. You should be OK if you don't drink. It will go down over 28 days.
  6. Criminal charges for diversion

    Are you in a monitoring program,? How long ago did it happen?
  7. Glad to be here with you guys!

    I deleted my social media account to be safe when applying for a job I really wanted in the past
  8. False positive

    Technically it could be in a hair test from 1x but it's really meant for chronic use buy maybe? I hope that no more stimulants is the worst case scenario for you. I just tell people I'm independently employed now and will continue to do so. Try...
  9. False positive

    You should be HIPPA protected. She shouldn't br legally allowed to report you. Maybe lab error? Worst case scenario is probably you need to find a new psychiatry to prescribe stimulants. Another test from your PCP would not cover the same time...
  10. Privatization of Monitoring Programs: Profit Driven Motives

    DBT? For borderline personality disorder? Is that your diagnosis? A three hour therapy appointment? Crazy.
  11. I hate being in a monitoring program

    Thats great. In my state the first year we test 5x each month 4x monthly the second year and 3x a month the 3rd year. It is a set number of times per month but "random ". You may get hit with a lot of tests in a row or maybe not. Be glad and enjoy t...
  12. Under investigation

    For me it'd just be stress I don't need. I'd go with a lawyer
  13. Under investigation

    Lawyer first thing tomorrow morning The monitoring agreement varies depending on your location. Usually 3 to 5 years of drug tests and not being allowed to take medication unless approved Possible rehab, AA type meetings having to meet w...
  14. NYS PAP

    2 years? The usual least amount of time is 3 I thought I have definitely learned a lot from reading posts. I'll never drink the night before work after this is over though I rarely drink Traces of alcohol could have been mouthwash.
  15. Legal battles

    A great lawyer is worth every penny.
  16. NYS PAP

    You were hung over at work and were honest about it so all this? It's really ridiculous how many people pay the price for a diagnosis they don't have. You self reported to the program? What is OPD?
  17. NYS PAP

    You're not the only one who has to play this game who doesn't have a SUD. You were reported to a php? In some states You're not reported to the board.
  18. Completed VA HPMP... Have Questions? Let me know!

    Thanks. Its brutal where I am.
  19. Completed VA HPMP... Have Questions? Let me know!

    What is the normal or average in DC? How often is testing? Therapy required? Looking for an easier program.
  20. Completed VA HPMP... Have Questions? Let me know!

    Some states at least will let you get a license, maybe all. If I were you I'd try to pick a state where 3 years not 5 is the average sentence. Michigan and Nevada are average minimum 3 years.
  21. Privatization of Monitoring Programs: Profit Driven Motives

    You were almost done and tested positive for alcohol? I'm guessing they will just add time unless maybe it was because you accidentally used mouthwash or something with alcohol unintentionally. Good luck
  22. Are you guys going to AA/NA meetings or not, how to track?

    You're saving yourself 4 hours a week plus by not having to go to meetings or groups . So glad meetings are zoom. It's such a waste of time. At least the meetings are free
  23. Hair Follicle Testing in Monitoring Programs

    I wish I could do the observed tests. I have to do blood and hair instead.
  24. Privatization of Monitoring Programs: Profit Driven Motives

    Where I live anyone with a monitoring agreement does observed urine tests if they can.
  25. Hair Follicle Testing in Monitoring Programs

    I just can't urinate while being watched.
