I just can't stay away from this thread!!:laugh:

Well since my medical is due by the 31st of this month, I guess when I go in, I should fess up and tell my AME that I've:

1. abused alcohol more than 52 times over the past year (alcohol abuse)
2. that I was on ritalin when I was a senior in high school
3. that because my airline's management is stressing me out to the point that I'm constantly depressed mixed in with intermintent episodes of euphoria when I finish a trip and go home (bipolar disorder)
4. that I have alerigic reactions when I mow my grass (chronic allergies/hay fever)


Jiminy Christmas am I screwed this time around. Guess I better figure out where I'll come up with the $250,000 dollars to cover the fine and how I can serve 5 years in the lockup. I know only half of the above conditions are disqualifying, but they'll still get me for not being truthful regarding my history. Then they'll deny my medical for the bipolar and alcohol abuse and I'll be retired before I get a chance to get it back.
Some people say after imprisonment one should be rehabilitated and ready to go back out into society. I'm willing to be I would have severe depression by that point and never be able to fly again. :erm:

You act like I posted an editorial.

Too many general practice type docs use that stuff like water.

Question the Feds will have is: why was it prescribed.
Sounds like it was:

(1) Adjustment disorder with depressed mood – which is no big deal, like the common cold. If you had a no-kidding big-league major depression – which is what the Feds would be concerned about - off meds you’d still be in the woods right now.
(2) A family practice type doc prescribed meds “’cause it might help.” Bet a hard-headed psychiatrist would not have prescribed meds.

If the above fits your case and the Feds can be convinced of this scenario – then should have zero problems getting up. Especially as you are A-OK now.
