I HAVE Shizoaffective BIPOLAR type I, and CAN I work as a truck driver with my mental condition?
I am 25 years old and don’t like living on ssi + SSDI forever cuz the money is $890 a month and dont like this, I wanna work as a truck driver cuz they make $11 an hour or more and don’t have to depend on disability. I HATE living in a subsidized apartment and living on taxpayers money. I wanna know if I can work as a truck driver even with my mental condition as schizoaffective disorder bipolar type I, taking the Following MEDICATIONS:
-Seroquel 600MG at night,
-Lithium Carbonate 600MG in the morning 900MG at night.
After taking seroquel I CAN NOT stay awake cuz it works like a sleeping pill and causes a lot of drowsiness.
Will my mental condition allow me to drive a truck for long hours and go to truck driving school? thank u!!

No, you wont be able to pass the DOT required physical. Of course, I’m not a doctor, so you need to check with one for a positive answer.
You wont be able to get a hazmat endorsement. Not sure about a plain class a cdl. Call DMV or trucking school. You have to have a good driving record also. The big question you have to be crystal on is will your condition compromise the saftey of you and the other drivers out their.
Oh well you can be a troll
sell your pills.
I’m sure they will get you enough money to get a condo sooner or later.
