Answer 1

Suicide is a permanent solution of temporary probelms, don't you even consider it! Nothing's worth you ending your own life.

It has only been a year, so i reckon they are still monitoring your performance.

But i highly doubt it would stop you from achieving your goals altogther.

Good luck.

Answer 2

No one will know about your medical history. No problem, go for it.

Answer 3

I think your medical records are strictly private. Any problems you have are between you and your GP.

Answer 4

What went on last year with regard to your health stays there.

You may be asked if you have every suffered with depression if so just say yes but i am ok know. and that is the amount you will have to disclose on any application.

In the Uk any company, college will require your written permission to excess your medical records.

The data protection act clearly states this and you have the right to refuse and not explain why

So my advice go for it and good luck

Answer 5

your medical records should be kept private so you should be just fine!!!

Good Luck!!

Answer 6

They won't be able to access your medical records, the only way anyone can find out now is if you decide to tell them.
