Marine Reservist that has been UA for a year has a couple questions
Posted on
Posted again because the first one didn't properly upload or something
As the title says I am a Marine Reservist who has been UA for a little over a year. Yes I know, I am the biggest POS known to man-kind. I was struggling with some mental health issues due to alot of things going on personally around the beginning of May 2019. I decided to step away from the Marine Corps after a drunken suicide attempt (my unit was aware of the situation) and I've been working civ side the past year. After the first few months of being UA, I was genuinely just too chicken shit to go back because I was afraid of the consequences from both the UAs piling up and the whole mental health thing. Would I go to the brig? Would I even be able to operate with that shit on my record? Would I even be welcome back?
I decided to call admin at my unit today to see what was up. I was told directly by admin, my separation packet was already processing and as far as the mental health issues she had no idea what could happen. A meeting was scheduled for anytime in the morning next week for me to come down and talk to the Battalion CO.
So now with the context out of the way, the questions are. Can I get sent to the brig? Will the whole suicide thing still be on my record or brushed under since I was intoxicated? Will I even be allowed to look at a rifle or go to range or anything? And what kind of consequences/repercussions would I be facing? Any general advice also would be solid
I also know this is just some random internet forum but I just want to apologise, I hope there is some way I can make this right
