    If that doesn't work, the state of Virginia has programs to pay for private cdl school.
    Have a chat with a couple of private schools in your area and ask about that.

    Thank you so much for your help Chinatown. It means more than you know. Also my dad and my grandad if they were still living they would also say thank you so much. My dad and my grandad were truck drivers. My grandad died in a truck. Anyways I am going to DRSA it's a organization for people who have disability and they would pay for the CDL TRAINING. But what I'm scared of is not having a truck driving company hire me. Do you know any company who would give me a chance ?? Again thank you

    Do you plan on stopping the antidepressants? I dont even think they test for that anyway, not sure about the felonies though, what type of felonies were they?

    No I can't stop the antidepressants. The DOT they test something I think for illegal drugs. Which I'll pass with flying colors. The CDL training school I know for sure they test for drugs.

    Find another profession.
    Taking a chance & if you have a wreck you could kill yourself & others, or end up in prison for the rest of your life.

    There are a lot more drugs than just the illegal variety that will keep you from getting a cdl. Chantix for example. its a stop smoking aid but was (probably still is) on the no go list due to the side effects.

    I didn't realize Trazadone is an antidepressant. M.I.L. takes Zyprexa or something....

    Yep, Wellbutrin in disguise. Suicidal tendencies is the first warning (at least on TV, FWIW.)
