Individuals with mental health issues may face barriers to being drafted into the military, as each branch has specific medical standards that include mental health evaluations. Conditions that significantly impair functioning or pose a risk to the individual or others may disqualify someone from service. However, those with manageable mental health issues may still be eligible, depending on the severity and treatment status of their condition. Ultimately, the decision rests on medical evaluations conducted during the enlistment process.
