While meeting with the Coast Guard recruiter, I answered a few screening questions.
He asked if I had any skin problems- like eczema. While I don't have a skin "disease", I do have a few keloids (small raised scars caused my acne in my teens) on my shoulders. The recruiter wasn't sure what I was talking about, or if it would disqualify me from enlisting. He's hopeful tough.
Does anyone know?
Also, I have taken the anti-depressant Welbutrin XL for anxiety, prescribed my a medical doctor. I'm not depressed, suicidal, or homicidal. The proverbial **** just hit the fan, and life was a bit too hectic. I was told that I would have to be off the medication for at least a year before he can process any paperwork. Does anyone know if I'm going to be disqualified anyway? Am I wasting my time?
