Even normal hormonal changes such as menapause can lead a doctor to prescribe this medication. That shouldn't be cause to deny a LTCH in my book.
I have depression/anxiety and am prescribed zoloft and xanax. I have NEVER thought about suicide... its not that kind of depression. I just get stressed out with college bs and have mild panic attacks, so it takes the edge off.
When you apply dont write down anything as far as being diagnosed or whatever. That question is for people who have spent court ordered time in a mental hospital. They DO NOT look at your medical records, and they shouldnt.
Hope this helps! Go apply!!!! and make sure to do l1 unless you want to wait 36+ days like I did.
Have you ever been treated for psychiatric health care or an emotional or mental illness?
Yes/No
a. Year of recent treatment:
b. Submit documentation/recommendation from treating mental health professional or treatment center.
For the ones who say "depression" doesn't need to be disclosed...

Again, IMHO, the question on the app is not consistent with the law, but here you have the opinion of the ISP.
They should have stuck to the previous wording that limited it to "adjudicated mentally ill" and left it at that.
Stupid bureaucrats.
LOL, I just saw you blurred the weight. You go girl!!!!!!
Oh, on a more serious note: did you have any issues with the mental health/depression question? I'm assuming not, but thought I'd ask.
