Hello,
I am a student pilot, and I am currently in the process of filling out the MedXpress form and I see that I may have to answer "Yes" to having been diagnosed with depression in the past. In 2013, I underwent treatment for depression after the death of my father, which involved being on an anti-depressant for a few months. Long story short, I decided I was better off without the anti-depressants, and went off of them with the doc's help. I remained in therapy for a while after that, but am no longer in therapy today, nor am I being treated for depression.
I am worried about how this would affect my application, and what I should do at this point? Do I need to contact my doctor? Is there a form I need to have signed?
In short, am I screwed? What do I do?
Thanks for your help,
D
