Heres the easiest thing to do ok. Contact a recruiter. Email them your concerns and tell them that you wish to go for a flight class examination to see if you qualify. The worst that will happen is they will tell you, you do not qualify. Other than that dont worry about them still trying to get you to join as something else just be stern with them about your position. Best of luck to you.

for the US military.. you are PDQd with no chance at all unless you get off the meds for at least 12 months and function normally during that time.
Your eyesight is also a non waiverable factor. your UNCORRECTED vision must be at least 20/20.
Find another dream.

Anti-depressants will disqualify you from being eligable to fly. Pilots go through rigourous psych evals...they are being given multi-million dollar machines in extreme situations. You can talk to a recruiter, but it is highly unlikely that there are any waivers.

You take anti-depressants? If you've been diagnosed with depression you're chances are already shot for the military flight academy. Try commercial planes.

First of all, get a new handle, something like "warthog the pig f3cker". Second, you may want to consider changeing your citizenship to a country with lower standards, say, Mexico.
