    Will this DQ me?

    I have a few questions i would like to ask and have been very curious if i can or will be DQ immediately and finally found a place where i can ask.

    So first off, when i was 16 i was admitted to a hospital for being "crazy" i was not crazy, i was just "diagnosed" with depression. but now i dont suffer from depression any more or take any medications for being depressed or anything, i have not seen or went to any doctors at all lately.

    Second, I don't know if they ask these questions but i have not smoked marijuana for the past 3 years, now on the polygraph if a question like "Have you smoked within the past 7 years?" i would have to answer yes, but will that DQ me? even if i have not smoked in 6 years.

    Thirdly, Will they ask me if i have ever taken any medication for depression,ADD,ADHD? Reason being is, i still take medication for ADHD when i only need too just to concentrate in school a bit better. will this result in DQ or a less chance of getting a job?


    I know i still have a few years untill the test comes around but i want to get ahead of the game.


    Thank You

    Specifically, these questions are towards the state of NY but any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Use the search function. There are tons of "I'm a doper - can I become a cop?" threads in this forum!

    There are two things I'm good in, the second is arresting people



    I'm looking for Drug/Narcotic Unit patches together with DUI/DWI unit patches for a frame in our Anti-Drug-Team bureau

    Also looking for Massachusetts Police and US Capitol City PD patches now!
