My medical is with Dr Cheema about a month from now. I've been diagnosed with depression and anxiety and in 2019 I had two suicide attempts. I was never hospitalized for these (they were minor), I had another time when I had suicidal thoughts and voluntarily went to a mental health clinic (they never actually admitted me) I haven't had any thoughts of self-harm or attempts since around that time. I was on anti-depressants for a few months and had counseling a couple of times around then, but a few months after taking the antidepressants (2019), I stopped taking them and haven't had any treatment since.
I've changed my lifestyle completely since then and I haven't struggled with depression in a few years. Will I have any problems at the medical?
I'll be getting a note from my family doctor, what should I ask her to include on the note? Is there any other proof I should try to get to prove that I'm not a harm to myself?
Can anyone with a similar past share their experience at the medical exam?
Any advice or reassurance is very appreciated!
