Is it worth trying? I've been in the army cadets 4+ years I am overweight (12st) and can't even do 1 press up Im scared
Like I genuinely can't do a single press up, I'm 17 and turn 18 in December I have recently had 2 friends just pass out and it makes me feel worthless, I don't have the motivation to go to the gym and I've never been due to personal issues that frighten me. I have declined every call the recruiters have gave me as I am to scared to talk to them. I have no idea what I am doing anymore

It sounds like you have the interest and do want to join but your mind is stopping you get fit. If the gym guys worry you start training at home. The Internet/YouTube has loads of information and plans for getting Army fit.
If you want to be in the Army then go get it, but only you can do this. Answer the calls and talk honest with the Careers team, they will have heard it all before and know what to do to help.
Good luck and I hope you can be strong enough to push forward and be a better you.
