In my state, when you apply for a ccp you must sign a form to release your medical records.
Background: I'm 26 years old, but I'm disabled with two children,and trying to finish a college degree. There have been many circumstances as of late that have been very difficult. My property has flooded 3 times in 7 months, I'm typing this above 2 feet of water in my yard.
Because of this I have had occasional bouts of depression. I am not violent, homicidal, suicidal, never committed a crime, had 2 speeding tickets in my life. I'm pretty dull honestly.
I decided to apply for my CCP, because I honestly don't feel that I could adequately defend myself and my family in public from an able bodied BG. Open carry is legal in my state but it just doesn't appeal to me.
So, had a DR's appointment today and asked if he would have a problem signing off on the form when they request it. His jaw literally dropped when I asked this. He said there is nothing in my record that would keep him from signing off but they just don't do that there. He said if he received the form he would do NOTHING with it. Then proceeded to ask me if I've been carrying weapons around.
I don't know what to do. I don't want to open carry but I'm concerned that this quack will put something that will take my gun rights away period. I could tell from the look on his face that he has probably never even held a gun.
Thoughts?
