So years ago i was treated with depression, with pills. One time i was in hospital for one day only.

 

last year i quit pills by myself, and i went back to the doctor to tell this to him, and he gave me a paper i dont need more, because i feel better and i dont need therapy and\or pills. He agreed and wrote this to me, we cancelled the therapy and pills.

 

But this week some bad things happened i couldnt handle, and i was at the doctor to give me some pills (Frontin) to can sleep and calm cause i was mentally exhausted.

 

my question is, will it affect to my medical result? Because it will shown in my medical history. Will they deny my application because i got pills after my doctor said i need no more?

Generally depression alone is not a Class A medical condition that would make you inadmissible. If you have any history of self harm, are currently self harming, or deemed by the physician to be at risk of self harm then it’s a bit of a different story. 
 

From what you have written it seems like you should not have a problem

Then it’s really going to be up to the panel physician. I personally wasn’t even asked any questions about mental health, but then there are stories here where the physician has asked a lot of questions and even referred to the applicant to a psychiatrist for further evaluation. 
 

This is directly from the CDC

My psychiatrist wrote a letter This year im healed, and that thing happened about 3 or 4 years ago.

 

this week when i got pills i was asked If i want scuicide, i said no, because i really no. I dont want to take pills long term, i was just in a crisis and i needed them for one day. But i feel better.

 

So this is my mental “history”.

 

Theres a chance for me to get approved, or they judge me by my past and they will say ill do it again and deny my petition? Of course i dont want to do that again...
