Hello. I'm turning 20 next month. During my teen years from about 13-18 I went through a severe depression. I was prescribed a bunch of different anti depressants and anti anxiety medications. I ran into some addiction problems with tranquilizers (which is on my chart). I also spent some time in a youth psychiatric hospital when I was 15-16 on two occasions for about a month both times. I was self admitted my parents made me but the point is I was not institutionalized. All for depression and anxiety not any kind of psychotic illness or anything like that. I am now 100% stable. It probably had something to do with imbalances caused by puberty. A good amount of teenagers suffer depression during this time.
Anyway I figured in my medical it might come up. I'm not depressed now and not on any kind of medication. I really want a career in the military and I hope this won't hold me back in any way. If any of you have any insight it would be greatly appreciated.
