Where did you work while you waited to be cleared? I just got off the phone with the intake and have way more questions than answers.

I just got notification that my previous employer did in fact report me, from a diversion and positive drug screen back in December. I am in a pickle bc my license is in Texas but I live in VA and the TX program can't accommodate me long distance, but with this complaint IDK if they'll let me get my VA license. in other words I am stressed.

Wait why

I have read mostly negative things about TPAPN but hopefully it is doable and I can move on!

They did tell me they were reporting me.

Well, I got fired a year into a 3 year contract after testing positive for opiates that I'm not prescribed/investigated for diversion/suspension without pay for over a week. I knew that there was a 50-50 chance I'd be fired. I'm actually OK? I'm relieved that I hit rock bottom and I can finally get up. I am scared that once they notify the board I'm ***ED. What am I going to do for work? How do I go ahead and enter a monitoring program? I'm licensed in TX but have a compact license and live in VA now. I know I need help. I'm scared. I'm hopeful. Any advice and encouraging words would be appreciated!
