Remember all those notarized forms you had to submit?

I have read the provisions of Chapter 411, Texas Government Code and 37 Texas Administrative Code 6.15(6)(C) and hereby authorized the release of information and records to the Texas Department of Public Safety for the purpose of a background investigation to determine my eligibility to carry a concealed handgun or to instruct classes on concealed handguns. These documents may include, but are not limited to:

1. Medical records within 5 years preceding the date of application pertaining to chemical dependence or
ability to exercise sound judgment with respect to the proper use and storage of a handgun;

But ya, i wouldn't worry about prescribed zoloft and adderall.

Okay, ya got me, been a long time since I got my CHL, due for a renewal infact. Still, I think the OP will be fine.

I wouldn't think so. Since you say USED to take, that would indicate to me that you do not take those meds any longer, so you are not currently dependant upon them. Additionally, if you suffered no ill effects upon stopping the meds, then you were never chemically dependant. BTW, how would they even know, medical records are protected by the HIPPA law, so they cannot be released. That statement, however, comes with all the usual disclaimers...IANAL etc.
