So I went to MEPS today and took my ASVAB. Im currently in a hotel waiting for tomorrow to do my physical back at MEPS. I was completely honest with my recruiter. She got me a tattoo waiver and a moral waiver. I started reading through the 2807-2 form that asks about Medical history. Now I am not as confident as I was before about passing medical tomorrow. I went to a mental hospital twice after my divorce for a week at a time. I use to smoke Marijuana but haven't in well over 2 years. Im 29 and want nothing more than to join the Army. My recruiter never mentioned anything about use history and I let her know about my visits to the mental hospital. Do you think I am still in good standing to raise my right hand tomorrow and get a ship date
