Hi, we may be from the same state because the gun laws here are insanely strict. I also know a few people personally who are very into guns as a hobby and they have confirmed to me that I will not be successful in getting one. However, this is only if you have been involuntarily committed based off of the info I have found. If you have been voluntarily committed or are receiving treatment I have been told that does not show up when they run your info. In my state, gun shows also supposedly follow this protocol. I don't want to raise suspicion and doing anything illegally is not something I am willing to do. I was involuntarily hospitalized last spring out of "precaution" for two days. Ironically I was not suicidal and was not even considering it at the time. Only after I got out did I start to think about it.
Really makes me angry because I would never hurt anyone else and I feel I should be free to do with my life what I want. I would be so comforted by the fact that I had this method at the ready.
