What are my chances of re-enlisting with a waiver for a personality disorder?

This question is very specific and I'd like only people who've experienced it(recruits and recruiters) to answer it please.

Have you successfully enlisted with a waiver for a personality disorder? If you did, would you mind sharing your story with me? I can in a PM if you want to share it publicly.

I just want some insight on my chances to re-enlist.

Extremely unlikely. However, every waiver is done by the DA Surgeon. Submit your documents and say a prayer. If you want an honest opinion , it's most likely going to be disapproved.

Go see a Recruiter and ask.

But be aware you will be denied to even try to process if you're taking medication, and if you've been off, you will need records of -everything- you've ever taken as well as a note from the prescribing doctor saying you've been off of it for years-- and even then, it probably won't be approved. For perspective, people aren't even being approved for ADD in high school after years in college.

I concur with the above. Your chances are slim to none

I can look at our medical waivers and give you an answer, I work at the largest Army recruiting BN. If you want to send me your documents I can read them and give you my best guess, but a lot of what the above comments stated are true.

Were you successful in re enlisting? Did you get a waiver?...
