You just have to let your chain of command know that you you are using the open door policy. You don't have to disclose why but you just have to let them know that you are.

It's always ok to use the open door policy, especially if you have approached your NCO support channel already. You mention that you have lots of personal problems, my experience is that if you have problems now they will probably be exacerbated by active duty where your time and movement is more controlled.

I agree Active duty can cause upheaval that way. Unless you mean you would appreciate the increased and consistent paycheck. That is why my hubby went active from the Reserves. Other than that you can land in a deploying Unit like my hubby did when we first arrived to Fort Drum and they wanted him to deploy.

PFC (Join to see) when I was a Commander I had the open door policy and if a person does not feel conformable putting their business out to all the leaders in their chain of command or there was an issue with their chain of command they scheduled to see me or caught me in the hallway. There is an open door policy for a reason. Just explain to him/her why you are using it and not going through the chain or that you did use the chain of command and this is your last resort. Good luck.
