Hey there, a few years ago I was treated for possible BPD which one counselor later said was more likely ADD and PTSD. I got some CBT training and eventually got off the meds after 2 years.
Since then, I'm doing very well - very steady work, lots of responsibility. Family stuff is going great and I'm keeping the whole scene together really well. So well... that now I'm expected to undergo a background check for great new responsibilities on the home front - and possibly get a secret clearance for work.
I didn't even think about the past stuff from over 6 years ago, until I read the forms which each require full disclosure on psych background. All of the sudden, I'm worried that I'm not going to be able to fulfill either of these situations.
So, I was told back in the day that there was a "closed file" that I didn't have to tell ANYONE about, due to the law. But, if I don't disclose on these forms, I could lose my job and the family opportunity.
Anyone know the law?
