I've completed all of the requirements to apply for my CCW license. However, I fell sort of stuck because at the training, I noticed that the application has several questions about mental health. I have taken anti-anxiety medications on and off in the past. However, before I got pregnant with my daughter 2 years ago, I weaned off of them and don't plan on getting back on them (unless I go through something traumatic). I've never been committed or anything like that.
My issue is with my psych doctor. First, I haven't seen her in 2+ years. Second, she is very liberal in nature, and I really don't think she will sign the medical release.
So, now I'm very sad that I've come this far and now I'm at another wall. My instructor said that I could get a release from a general doctor, but the application said it has to be the "treating physician".
I'm confused. Should I just assume that I will be denied and not even bother applying?
Thank you in advance!
