It's worded strangely. That currently or if left untreated...well no it wouldn't Currently and it's been treated so...???

methadone isn't on INSPECT afaik. The privacy laws around it are a lot different. I am not 100% but I know my regular doctors don't know unless I tell them. I don't get it at a pharmacy.

Lol! It is frustrating that something that is in my past has such a huge potential to essentially ruin, or at least put a giant damper on, my career before it even starts.

OK so I got your PM but I'm too new to reply. I see where you are coming from entirely. I wish I knew the exact likelyhood that they'd actually check my medical background :/

PM me?

Thank you. I'm in IN. I just didn't know if answering yes would mean they would want details of my recovery or if they just want details of my addiction. I hate the idea of lying but I also hate the idea of killing my career before it starts :/

I don't disagree that it is important to foster rapport to develop trust and willingness to listen, and suggesting parents should be sterilized or their children removed is absolutely abhorrent. That being said, vaccination is a public health issue that none of the others come close to. Possibly smoking? And that was banned indoors in most states that I know of. What about 'freedom of choice' for smokers to smoke inside? They can't because other people didn't sign up for the risks of exposure to second and third hand smoke. Well, vaccination is an even bigger public health issue, as before vaccinations, incidence and morbidity of those diseases was high! Mortality went down after better infrastructure/medicine/hygiene but it wasn't unheard of. Now it is. Now catching measles (one of, if not the, most contagious diseases) is newsworthy! Lower vaccine rates are creating a public health issue. THAT is why it's treated differently than drinking too much pop or eating too much fried food. Yes those are also serious health issues that cost millions if not billions every year, but if vaccine rates drop much lower, the costs will quickly exceed those. That is why it's so important. Obesity isn't contagious like measles (although yes I'm aware an obese family member increases risk of other obese family members).

Because vaccines don't have 100% efficacy. They may be close but not 100% means there is risk of catching it. It's also possible that the exposed child ends up bringing it home to his too-young-to-vac siblings or to their too-sick-to-vac family members. Vaccination is a community effort.

Howdy guys. I have been reading through the forums, and I am going to contribute to the million hx of addiction questions. I am starting my pre-reqs for nursing school soon. However, I have a hx of drug abuse (common story, back problems and pain pills...started ER drug seeking for awhile, realized what a scumbag I became and went to rehab), and am currently tapering off of MMT. I am incredibly grateful to the program. I go to a counseling and at least 1 group every month (usually more). I have had over 100 consecutive clean drug screens (never had a failed one in fact). If I hadn't stopped when I did, and if I hadn't gotten on MMT, I know I would have lost my home, children, possibly my freedom or my life. I owe a lot to the program. However. Big however. I am aware the BON doesn't look kindly on a hx of addiction, for obvious reasons. I have no legal history outside of speeding, and the only 'proof' is in my medical records. I also have an app in to the state for a months worth of take homes (currently get 2 weeks). Tapering safely I can be off in 9 months, well before I'd even graduate. So I won't be on the Methadone by the time I'd go before them. I don't feel comfortable with either of my options. And I want to be very well prepared and aware of the consequences before I am at crunch time. If say yes in IN that I have a hx of addiction, that I have (at this point 6.5 years) x years clean, should I mention MMT? or leave it out? If I include it what would that mean? If I don't what would that mean? If I move, does that mean I'd be subject to restrictions AGAIN? What are the chances that I not get any restrictions or monitoring (or at least not expensive years long monitoring)? If I say no, I'd be lying and subject to losing my license and fines. But I'd not have to worry about an monitoring programs, same with if I move (which I plan to after I get my license), no worrying about restrictions or monitoring, and possibly even less chance of being found out. Both options suck pretty hard. Which stinks. Because I got help BEFORE things got really bad. I am very ashamed of my past actions, but not of my recovery. So I feel pretty torn. Thanks for making it through my novel :)
