Hi, ive heard that the requirements for the army , regarding mental health, are a case by case basis? Can anyone give me any advice on if i might be accepted based on my health?
so im 15 years old and i want to start applying for AFC harrowgate soon . But i struggled with anxiety since i was 7/8 years old and depression since i was around 10. I did attempt to take my own life twice when i was 14 . this was the result of anti depressant side effects and ongoing physical abuse. I was in the hospital for a few hours but i wasnt sectioned or anything like that. I am , currently, on a different anti depressant and i am getting much better . Hopefully i will be coming off it in the next couple weeks. So, upon joining AFC Harrowgate i would be off medication and discharged from CAMHS.
If anyone has had a similar experience and applied to the army can you pls let me know .Thanks
