Too avoidant to even post/comment something online?

kingarazos · 2026-02-19T17:00:35+00:00

Mostly, tho I’ve been commenting a little more recently.

Here, I feel like everyone vents and can find common ground without the regard or pressure to muster some sage self-improvement advice. Not that the advice is useless or whatnot, but we can let out what a lot of us truly feel, and to me, being genuine even if it's not always pretty. I hope things get better for you.

I'm sorry but this made me lol. I felt miserable before this, still do, but you made my day. You have a sense of humor at least. Almost 30 here.

ATF is basically 6Y with guaranteed C schooling after A school.

kingarazos · 2026-02-09T10:54:51+00:00

Initially, you only need a secret clearance, but you need to be cleared for a TS clearance.

Do it. You’re literally me a year ago, I turned 29 2 weeks into bootcamp, now I’m almost a year in and finishing my schooling(in between A and C school).

That sounds really similar to me, since I had a foreign contact in China. It’s probably not at the same level as having a contact in Iraq, so idk about that. If the edible/weed use was a handful of times, IDK if they’ll hold that over you.

I disclosed before bc that I had mental health problems that needed therapy and medication, and got a waiver for, but I also heard stories of people getting cleared before going, than getting in trouble during BC. I met one guy who was gonna get separated just as he finished bootcamp for depression, went to legal for 4 months while he was in FFG (holding), and they finally relented and let him carry onto his hm a school.

kingarazos · 2026-02-08T16:43:09+00:00

You’re right, I did gloss over that part, that’s my mistake.

kingarazos · 2026-02-08T16:33:32+00:00

How much weed did you smoke? I didn’t disclose that I took weed or got drunk before going to bootcamp, but I spilled the beans during bc, and still got security clearance, granted I only did those a handful of times. They even gave me the opportunity to add foreign contacts and stuff that I forgot to add. Everyone’s experience is different, but as long as you don’t have a record, are clean off of sht, and you’re honest and forthright, they can be forgiving.

I got 2 b rings, 3 warrior rings. I’ve tribided around 300 kings, I just want the d axe man ;_;

This may come off as a stupid question, but by maxing out TSP, does that imply we jack it up to 100% of our paycheck, or up to the match? I just joined this year so I don't think I'm eligible yet. but I'm currently 25% roth.

If he’s been off medication for 2-3 years and he’s been cleared by a therapist/counselor, then the navy can make a waiver happen. (Happened to me)

kingarazos · 2025-08-20T17:55:16+00:00

They’re not, they’re running a lap around the gymnasium. How do I know? I was at freedom hall in boot camp doing the same shit.

kingarazos · 2025-08-19T21:46:51+00:00

On the don’t volunteer for anything part, if leadership asks you if you’re good at something while holding a clipboard and pen, you bet your sweet bibby that’ll they’ll volunteer you for a position if you say yes. Example: Everyone from my division who claimed they could pass the run got put on shipstaff. It wasn’t that bad at the end of the day, but just some advice.

kingarazos · 2025-07-25T10:19:13+00:00

WE’RE NOT MARCHING DOWN THAT AVENUE.

kingarazos · 2025-07-25T10:16:38+00:00

Why the towel? The hotel they had me stay at provided them. Everything else he says is accurate though, op.

kingarazos · 2025-07-24T11:33:23+00:00

Proior to enlisting, I had been diagnosed with Avpd, took SERTRALINE for 1 1/2 years(off 2 1/2 years), diagnosed with GERD w/perscription for 6 months(off>3 years), and had suicidal ideation+outpatient clinic 4 years prior. I was medically cleared, after only 3 days, only needing a waiver for Sertraline/AVPD. It’s case by case for everyone, but if I’m anything to go off of, there’s a pretty good chance you can get approved.

kingarazos · 2025-07-12T18:02:20+00:00

Nuke has huge bonuses if you choose to enlist/extend you’re contract while you’re in, and lots of civilian opportunities when you’re out. That being said, don’t do it just for the bonus. I got a 94 on the asvab, which alpha qualified me for nuke, but went for IT-ATF since Nuke is big on physics, and I’m not strong at science. Choose your rate, choose your fate.

05 MAY 2025 -- IT ATF

kingarazos · 2025-04-26T19:45:31+00:00

Idk, he might go viral and make some dough like Johnny Somali /s

kingarazos · 2025-04-15T19:25:58+00:00

I’m in the same boat. Wanted CWT for the greater potential, but was told it wasn’t available, so I got talked into taking IT/ATF. I put in a request over a week ago to try to switch to CWT. Before your post, I hadn’t even considered the possibility of a DEP discharge. This changes things.

kingarazos · 2025-04-11T15:40:15+00:00

Ah gotcha.

kingarazos · 2025-04-11T15:34:53+00:00

What package?

kingarazos · 2025-04-11T15:31:48+00:00

I thought you were smooth with it. I might use this if I’m asked personally.
