When enlisting in the airforce...?

Question

Would having ADD and/or an anxiety disorder affect your chances of being accepted?

Answer 1

It probably would but it depends on how severe your case is.

Answer 2

You will have to provide ALL medical documents relating to treating it to MEPS doctor during your physical. Based on that, they will decide whether you can join or not. I believe having anxiety might only disqualify you from few jobs like flying, bomb squad, and such. Regarding ADD, you might want to check with recruiter.

Answer 3

Yes. The Air Force is very picky. One must be cool and calm at all times.

Answer 4

Please talk to a recruiter.  I commissioned one of our cadets last week but I needed a waiver from SG.  You may or may not qualify for a waiver based on your circumstances.  A recruiter can evaluate your situation and give you the best information.

Answer 5

Yeah it would.  

Answer 6

yep. especially if you take medication
