<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>This is not the right forum for such a question. Service members should expect privacy and respect when dealing with such situations. I would recommend contacting a recruiter if you feel you face challenges from your previous life experiences that would potentially impact your chances in serving in the military. No one here will be able to access your situation accurately. Any review of mental health needs to be conducted by a healthcare professional.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The better question is how are you coping with it and are you healthy.<br />The military is an inherently stressful job. It is not for everybody.<br />My hope is that you are not seeking this option to get away from the person (people) that tried to assault you. I have seen that a number of times in my career; it doesn&#39;t end well.<br />Your priority should be getting healthy and then making decisions about your future.<br />Are you receiving treatment of any kind?

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>First, I am sorry you had to go through something like that.<br /><br />This is a question you will need to go over with your Recruiter and your Doctor at MEPs. Just like any other illness/injury it depends on the severity and what the current treatment plan includes/involves. PTSD can vary from person to person so there isn&#39;t a general cookie cutter answer anyone can give you. Just work with your Recruiter on it as nobody here will be able to give you a better answer than they can.<br /><br />Good luck.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The answer is it depends. Reasoning is that individuals who suffer from PTSD suffer in many different ways. There is not set standard on how individuals with PTSD are supposed to act. Each case is unique. <br /><br />To start, you need to have been formally diagnosed by a licensed psychiatrist with PTSD. If you have not been diagnosed with the disorder, you cant really say you have it. <br /><br />If you have a formal diagnosis, you will be required to provide documentation that the disorder will not negatively hinder your ability to serve. <br /><br />Start with that.
