    Navajo Express has a dedicated run from Atlanta to Jackson, TN and return every day.

    Cardinal Logistics has around 3 accounts around the Atlanta area. Make good money there and usually haul a load out, deliver, then return either empty or with a backhaul. Their website shows where and which company the accounts are with.

    that can happen to ANYONE, it's how one handles the situation, and from there, builds up one's character, to handle things in the future.

    i truly do wish you all the very best, please do take your own advice and seek professional help, then get your arse back on the road....!!

    Since the changes on this board, people don't know how to do that any more (because the feature is hidden and not obvious).
    Now, a person needs to click on the persons screen name they wish to PM, and then click on "Start A Conversation" in the pop-up. It doesn't say 'Private Message' or Personal Message'.
    "Start A Conversation" as written, makes one feel as though they will be starting a new thread and/or PUBLIC conversation, until they actually do it once and see that it IS private. That new feature sucks in my opinion. "Send PM" was much easier to understand, and doesn't have to be questioned.

    Any way...to the OP: If you would have quit instead of got canned, you could put on your application, in the "Reason For Leaving" section, "Personal Leave". They are not allowed to ask...and your past employer is not allowed to tell.
    But since you were canned; your past employer can only say whether you Quit, Got Canned, or was Laid Off---and if you're eligible for re-hire....they will put "canned", and your perspective employer will ask YOU for a reason. You better have one.

    Years ago, when I took "Personal Leave"...I was lucky enough to have an excuse---told them one of my kids was acting up in school, and I had to take some time off to stay home and get the kid back on track because they weren't listening to their Mother. Never even got questioned or thought twice about.
    Get creative!

    Whoa ... You did not yet go to one and set up a therapy plan to make sure you've worked out your problems?

    I recommend staying off the road until you get professional help because these mental issues are not cured, they are managed, and trying to return to a highly stressful job will end up triggering you again and you end up dealing with it again.
