I’ve failed BCT due to depression/anxiety. Can I get federal jobs?

I realize that you wanted to be in the Army, but have you considered that the extremely high stress profession of arms may not be the best fit for you? This isn't so much a question of whether you are up to the challenge, as much as the Army just may not be the best place for you to make your mark in the world. I am very encouraged that you have had no suicide attempts for 5 years. At the same time I am concerned that you had so much emotional difficulty in BCT. The Army is not a "kind" profession (or environment) and you should consider myself fortunate that you found out so early. I also strongly feel that you should continue psychological and/or psychiatric (M.D. or D.O.) treatment for the foreseeable future. I don't believe that this is the death knell for all GS or contractor positions in your future. Nevertheless most federal and state government environments can feel like you are working in a "snake pit". It can unbalance the psychologically healthy, therefore you need to be well regulated emotionally before you stick your toe in there. A very superficial discussion can be found at:

Just focus on taking care of yourself, getting enough sleep eating well and not thinking about suicide. My sister committed suicide on July 4th, 2015. many of us here on rallypoint could support you in discussion.
