Ok, serious this time. Dude, everyone has times in their lives where anxiety, depression, and anger are present. The key is what, if anything, triggers these reactions. If I were in your shoes, I would take a good hard look at myself and determine if these issues occur at random, unprovoked times.

To be a safe pilot, you must be of sound mind and body. I am not talking yoga and green tea, but I feel that mood swings, illogical behavior, and any type of drug dependence have no place in the cockpit...especially with 50+ people in the back.

If you think that your troubles are behind you and blue skies ahead, don't take anymore drugs and don't check "depression" on that do you have any of these page. If you have a guilty conscience, tell your examiner about this past occurrence and most likely you will get a sympathetic ear and some advice, as opposed to a judgment.

Just my 2 pennies, I hope it all works out for you.
