Hi All,
I just need some advise, I am going in to get a new medical soon. I have seen a therapist for some relationship issues I had with a boyfriend, bad break up cheating etc. No diagnoses or meds required and my therapist will write me letter stating just that. Now the problem is... A) do I mark yes on any of the "have you ever in life etc" b) this gets more complicated, on my previous medical I did not report the visits. However, it was not out of purposely lying to the faa it was a judgement call (bad one) that since it required no meds or diagnosis and the subject matter was intensely personal in nature. I felt best not reporting it (after review of the fars and advise from other i realized this was in error) Which I know now was false and I want to come clean and apologize for my error and correct it. For what it's worth, I'm gay... My therapist and I talked a lot about being gay and relationship in nature are tougher to maintain especially in the area I live in. And since sexually orientation is not protected under federal law I'm fearful of the ame or the faa to discriminate against me, even though the therapist said im mentally fit for flying, the reviewing processes (ie extra testing etc). I plan on reporting the visits with an explanation explaining exactly what happened and coming clean. What would an ame say in regards to the visits and what is the faa going to do to me?
Sincerely,
