3rd class medical

Long story short I had an extended moment of anxiety/OCd in my life and went to my doctor regarding it. I went through a few medications such as Xanax, Klonopin and eventually Abilify before I went to a psychiatrist and was prescribed Lexapro and Buspirone (to reduce side effects from Lexapro)...

Hello everyone, I am new here. I was on Zoloft (prescribed by physician for anxiety) for more than 5 years. Got off medication 6 months ago under physicians guidance. Never seen a psychiatrist. Would like to consult a board certified psychiatrist for evaluation, before starting the...

Hi all, I am hoping for any advice or input from you all on this... TLDR: Haven't been seen for 15 years for a diagnosis I had as a young child, now (seemingly) have to be seen for the rest of my life every six months if I want to maintain my medical certificate. When I was around 7 or 8 I...

I absolutely love it. I had to fight through red tape and nonsense to get my 3rd class medical. It took me...

I started the private pilot license program with enthusiasm. Ground school was a chore but completed it. Looking back, it would have been better if I took this online because my teacher sucked and wouldn't provide us powerpoint copies and told us nothing about what to do after we completed the...
