I would really appreciate it if someone can help me with my situation. I have a couple of questions that need to be answered that is listed all the way on the bottom. I hope my story is not too boring.
After doing plenty research of this disorder I firmly believe I don't have Psychomotor Retardation. A while ago I was disqualified when I tried to join the United States Marine Corp. in the Boston MEPS. If I am correct psychomotor retardation is when you think, talk, and move slowly caused by severe depression. I know I am being being wrongly disqualified if my definition of this disorder is true. What basically happened was when I was about to recieve my physical the doctor or physician told me to take off all my clothes from my waist and above. Here is when all the bad stuff starts happening: I misheard him afterwards since he didn't speak loud and clearly while he was mumbling and then i proceeded to take off all my clothes until he stopped me.(You'd think military people would always be loud and clear at all times.) So after that incident he sent me to a consult for further evaluation. It was another psychiatrist MD. He seemed like a nice guy at first.(It gets worst) But I felt outraged at the end of the interview. This Dr. was a Jesuit and a little hard of hearing. Here is when more bad stuff happens: During the interview I frequently had to repeat and rephrase myself because he had a hard time hearing and understanding to me. Now I usually talk fast, but when a person has a hard time hearing me I am forced to talk slower with occasional pauses to make myself clearer or if i'm talking to a person that english is not their first language. This doctor also verbally stated that he can't find anything wrong with me and doesn't understand why a doctor that good would send me to him.(Of course, he lied afterwards. by writing down on the piece of paper saying i'm slow and all.) After mentioning this the information that he gathered would be unreliable since he is hard of hearing. It also got to the point that I probably didn't get the right messages to him that would increase my chances to get disqualified when i should have repeated more often or corrected myself but I didn't because I felt the process took too long and didn't realize what could be happening. So the next couple of days I found out i was disqualified and my recruiters couldn't do anything about it. 5 months later I talked with a LT. trying to convince him that I really don't have this disorder but he told me once you're disqualfied then it is permanent unless it is waivable.(it wasn't waivable) I'm planning to sue them for slander and libel because I still want to join the marines and because I believe I am lying to the government if I let this injustice continue. I really don't want to sue them but I want to make an agreement with them to undisqualify me.
Here are my questions : If I really have this disorder would I be able to work at a fast paced job like McDonalds? (Its a fact that currently I work there and I would have been terminated by now if i was really slow mentally and physically and I also work at the grill area so basically everyone would have to rely on my speed to get the food to the customers on time) Would I be able to graduate with a highschool diploma? Would I be able to go to college? would I be able to get a high asvab score?(u don't have to answer this) Would people really complement how articulate my essays and speeches are?
If any of you guys can answer these questions and recommend me a good lawyer I would really really appreciate this. Thanks in advance!
