Interested in Reserve but on adhd and anxiety meds at low doses - can I enroll or not?

Some people have said you can’t be in any military service. I am interested in the direct commission officer path. The recruiter i spoke to knew about the meds and he said we can get a waiver for it. But a coworker of mine told me it’s a hard no to be on any prescription meds while being in armed forces.

I have functional adhd and anxiety. I went through all of college and grad school and got an mba from a top ranked university. So i could probably get off them. If so, how long do you have to wait before you can apply?

FYI - I’ve been on adhd recently and anxiety meds (adderall and Zoloft) for about 5 years. They do help with the stressful job and becoming a father but i don’t wneed it per se to function in daily life since im on low doses.
