Can i still join the army mp corps with my history?

Question

i was diagnosed with mild social anxiety and i also went to therapy

for 4 months when i was about 16 i am cured now but when they do a background check on me will that pop up? if i be honest and tell them

will they still disqualify me?

Answer 1

if ur fine now, dont say anything. but if u go all crazy when ur in training, they put u on a w'hole c**p load of meds, or even kick u out. just hope u know an mp is a pretty tough job. there r so many others to look at. explore ur options

Answer 2

Anxiety Disorder is not "cureable"......but you can handle it ( I have anxiety disorder)

My advice to you...... "Forget" the problem ..... just forget it ever happened..... It is highly unlikely it will ever be "discovered" even in a background check..... If it is you can claim it was a mis-diagnosis and that it has never given you any problems..... you just dismissed it from your mind

Answer 3

If you just went a therapist for 4 months, you are fine. You might have to get your former therapist to write a note for you. As long as you weren't on medication. You will probably need a waiver. Just say you went to a therapist for 4 months. I wouldn't tell them why. Get a letter from your therapist and you will be fine!

Answer 4

Yes you can join. My brother went to therapy and he's a Air Force cop.

Answer 5

the army?,just about anything short of capital murder and your fine.
