I could be completely wrong but I would say that it's just about impossible to stop the drug trade and the drug problem is all over the world. Providing we have people around the world just trying to survive then we will have people that will grow drugs, move drugs or whatever else with drugs. A...

Addictions have some very strange effect on people and they can be very difficult to shake. Addictions can leave people inches away from death while the person believes they have the best life they could possible have. The true nature of any addiction is it takes away your freedom. Its like...

Hey, I had the unfortunate "privilege" to have to quit paxil after being on it for about 3 years and taking 30mg a day. I quit cold turkey and didn't cut down at all but I wouldn't recommend doing that. I quit smoking and drinking after being an alcoholic for 5 years so I had some practice...

Hey Everybody, Sorry if this question has been asked but searching didn't come up with any useful results for me ( i fail at searching ). Anyway, I have the opportunity to study bioscience in the fall but I am also in the midst of joining the military. If I sign up for the classes and then get...

That was a surprising twist but definitely solved my problem since I wanted to take SQ. :)

Hey, I was just about to post that actually but you got in there before me :) Comms Research is my first choice but I was also looking down the road at various paths that can be followed in the military. Ben

Hello, I know this this topic has been posted before but seraching for the word army returns the whole forum :(. The IT career allow people the option of picking either the army, navy or air force. I watched the videos regarding them on forces.ca (...

Hey, Grats on quitting drinking and smoking. I found both to be challenging. I can't give you advice on the army but I can try to help. EI will pay you to attend school to get your GEDs. If you have a bad track record with EI then beg if you have to. Providing you can remain sober they will...

Yeah, i didn't take any of this post as medical advice. I saw a detailed warning to consult a doctor before doing anything. Great advice from everybody. Thanks

Hey Everybody. Again thanks a lot for all the help. I have always been a jumpy person, which is kind of funny since I am an adrenaline junkie. I will explain all of this and see what they say. It would be great if I could just get an adrenaline blocker then I would be set. Ben

Thanks, I was thinking about that actually. I signed up for classes where I will need to do presentations and I have been spending time meditating preparing to be calm and relaxed during the process. Somedays, I feel like chickening out but I will keep this in mind.

Yeah, I removed that statement since it didn't accurately reflect what I meant but that did bring up a question. What exactly is the common enrollment standard when it comes to medication and diseases. I haven't been able to find anything regarding what medication is acceptable. They state...

Hey, Thanks for the lengthy post. It was helpful. Unfortunately, there is a 6 year waiting period before getting a doctor here, assuming that hasn't gotten worse since a few doctors quit. I take the medication for a social problem. I have a phobia of speeches (random I know :)). I was a...

Thank you very much for the information. One of the really big problems is that I don't actually have a doctor. They are in short supply here and mine retired 20+ years ago. I went to a walk in clinics and requested the medication and they gave it to me. Paxil is a common medication in middle...

Hello Everybody, I have my doctors appointment tomorrow and I still haven't found any information on what I need in the letter from my doctor in response to my refusal. I have tried searching and I have read thousands of messages in this forum without much luck. So what is the D Med Pol...

Sorry, I think there is come confusion between the letter I recieved and the sticky in this forum. I was talking about http://forums.army.ca/forums/threads/91259.0.html The procedure I was talking about was the fact that I didn't post a new message. I instead read the stickies and searched...

As for me, no there are tons of reasons I would not get in but I am going to continue to try. I have been work as a firewall admin, linux/unix server admin and software developer for 20 or so years now. I am an alcoholic that quit drinking 3 years ago, smoker that quit a few months ago to get...

Hey, Opps, perhaps I wasn't as clear as I would have like to have been. I am not devastated, I haven't even finished appealing it yet. I was actually wading through this forum trying to find information on the process. I am well aware that the real word isn't fair, etc.. :). Kat Stevens rant...

I love your name Kat Stevens :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDq36YD1ESM Later :)

Hello, I have read several messages in the area and I wanted to say that perhaps some compassion is in order. Compassion is what separates us from the people we are fighting. Without it then we are just angry people with guns too. Everybody believes they are on the right side and the only way...
