I told my recruiter about this and they said just get med docs on it. so the doc is writing me up a summary report of what the sessions were about, when they occured, what was discussed, his opinion etc...however these are not the original documents which include things that I had said word for word. Confidential or not...there are definetly things that I would rather not a complete stranger read about. anyways my main question is will they dq me until i get them the actual recorded docs, or do you think that the summary will be sufficient? I mean basiclly i went through what every teenage went through when growing up, except my parents were a bit overzelous and sent me to counseling.
i guess it's important to note that I discontinued my sessions about 4 months after my 18th birthday(adult or not...the rents still paid for everything) and all this was about three years ago.
This will be for a First Class Naval Flight Medical.
Well, there are a few determining factors....
I know for a fact that anything said in those sessions cannot be released with direct and expressed consent from you. Also, a summary and professional opinion should be just fine... Official transcripts should not be needed.
As far as you being DQ'd from service, not by far. I had counseling as a kid, for a different reason, but still counseling is counseling, and I was not dq'd. Here I am now, an E6, working hard...
Now the kicker for you is the Medical ticket... I really don't know enough about that to comment on it. Everything I say from this point on is pure speculation and should be followed up by professional advice.
I do not think you will be dq'd, based purely on what you have told us. It depends on what the Doc writes about you... I know you have to pass a prelim. psych eval. anyhow, so as long as you pass that, I do forsee any major problems. Im sure there is some sort of waiver you can get or some rule about it being all before you were of legal consenting age... Like I said, This is all speculation... I would contact someone fromt he navy med office and see...
Either way, good luck!
