Hey everyone. I did a search and didn't find my answer, so here goes.
I used to take Adderall, have not in over 2 years, but I still get the scrip filled cause my mom thinks it makes my grades better.
So my recruiter said I have to be off for a year, which I have been easily, but since I still have a record of getting the scrip filled it may cause trouble. I have to get a note from the doc who prescribed it saying I stopped taking it, don't need it, but still have the prescription. That won't be a problem, but he said that letter may not make a bit of difference.
So my question is, why can felons get in, fat kids, kids who used to smoke tons of weed, gang members and the like all get in, but I have to wait because I had some focus issues? It just really makes no sense to me whatsoever...anyone in the know care to enlighten me?
Also, why can't Officer Selection recruiters deal with regular enlisted guys like me? My recruiter is an Officer Selection recruiter, and today I drove to go sign my papers for the ASVAB and stuff, and I got there and he tells me he forgot, he is an Officer Selection guy and therefore cannot help me sign any papers. I have to go to an enlisted recruiter, who will supposedly contact me, not me him. Aren't we all going into the same Corps? Why can he not help me with my papers?
This is all just really disheartening...right when I start working hard for something, like I have never done, all this **** keeps popping up. Started PT, lost weight, getting ready to get this going, and now I have to keep waiting...I'm not getting any younger here. I'm sorry for whining...today just kinda crushed all of my excitement.
