Is there a limit on how bad my anxiety and/or depression is before the Army denies me a job?

I suffer with bad mental health but I'm desperate to be a Veterinary Officer, can I still be let in and is there a maximum on severity?

    Hi, many thanks for your question and i'm really sorry to hear you suffer so badly. Unfortunately if you are taking medication this will make you ineligible. Unfortunately also due to the mental pressures put upon you during training and possibily whilst you are serving any sort of health problems (of which mental health is included) could be exacerbated and medical records are looked into.
