    Re: Want to join Army but covered in self-harm scars..

    hi.
    im ex forces and my hubby is stil in i developed anxiety in the army and i didnt get much treatment (they were useless lol)
    i think you have two choices
    1) sit and wallow and think will they take me wont they take me then not apply and never no OR

    2) go apply what on earth have you got to lose

    i do no they are strict and people are being asked to make themselves redundant but i alsp no they want fit soldiers so i recon as long as you apss all the fitness tests and the mental tests and their doctor rules you clear then you will be.

    PLEASE GIVE IT AGO OTHERWISE YOU WILL ALWAYS LIVE IN WHAT IF AND THATS THE WORSE WAY TO LIVE XXXX

    Maybe you should go to your local Army Careers Office and ask them there whether or not it would hinder you getting in?

    If you were to join, you would be sent overseas most likely afghanistan or iraq. You can go for a surgery to removed your scars. There are lots of available technology nowadays. The only problem is it's kinda too expensive but it will help you enter military.

    Thanks for all your support guys!

    This member hasn't been part of the forum since 2011. I'm afraid you won't get a response.
