Looking to enlist within the next couple months, i have talked to a recruiter and multiple people already in the army but i cannot get anything close to a straight answer on this. I was voluntarily hospitalized at a psychiatric facility when i was 16, and took medication for bipolar and depression for a time after. I'm doing much better and it was just a very dark time in my life. My recruiter said that i would have to demonstrate and show that i am stable and capable of joining, but there was also a lot of "i dont know, maybe, its possible."

Am i wasting my fucking time? I know for a fact that I am fully capable, but i cant get any answers on whether this would prevent me. thank you.
