During bmt they give you that form 0 or 1st week with a bunch of questions. After that, they kept sending me to BAS appointments which I felt was unnecessary. In the beginning of 5th week, they sent me to med hold and 5 days later, sent me back home. I am in the guard so i'm not separated as of now. They wrote that I disqualify for military service due to previous self harm and being suicidal. I feel like they highly exaggerated that and I didnt get to tell my side fully. I and completely mentally stable and I didnt even think that was a big deal at all which is why it wasn't even mentioned on my MEPS form. I have contacted my supervisor at my unit and they're trying to talk to some people to see what to do. But has anyone been in this situation and what was the outcome? I'm trying to stay in and would love to just go back to training. What chance do I have at that? And if I do go back to bmt, would i have to start from week 0? Any advice or information on this kind of situation would be helpful!
