[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At military academies, are you allowed to have a therapist? If so, could be worth getting regular sessions with a practitioner who could also keep an eye out and be a resource.[/quote] I would say no. You would get removed/medically disqualified if you develop and were diagnosed with a mental illness at an academy. A therapist for grief because your dad died, sure. A therapist bc your are hearing voices, no.[/quote] IMHO the military of all places should allow access to qualified mental health practitioners. Everyone can improve their mental health fitness just like physical fitness. It's enormous to process being trained to kill people if given the order to do so. I understand not wanting to have vulnerable people on active duty who would be more likely to break under pressure. Is there also fear that deep introspection could be counter to the mission?[/quote]
