Hi,
I'm just about to send my forms off but I'm a bit worried about something. I suffered post natal depression last year following the birth of my daughter, which was made worse by being in a foreign country alone whilst my husband was on a 6 month tour, even though I've been signed off last year and have been fine since will that affect my application? And should I declare it? Sorry I'm not very clued up lol

Yes declare it as they get you to fill in a medical declaration so your doctor may tell them anyway, always best to be honest.

i wouldnt worry i would declare it i cant see them questioning it you are fine now and things like that happen to a lot of women x

Definately declare it , but dont worry - several members on here have suffered with pnd too.

Thanks guys, forms have been sent back to AWS and have an appt with them on the 4th May 2010 to have my CRB done :clapping:

Good luck with your papers. I hope everything will work out well for you.

Thanks :) I'm looking forward to starting, just waiting on my course materials to arrive now

You must declare it because your doctor will have to fill out medical forms and he would have to declare it himself. I can't see it being a problem, you may just have a visit from their medical team to make sure they are happy that you have fully recovered.
