I am applying for my firearms ID card / pistol permit in New Jersey, and one of the questions says:

Have you ever been attended, treated or observed by any doctor or psychiatrist or at any hospital or mental institution on an inpatient or outpatient basis for any mental or psychiatric condition?

I would get counseling from a (((psychologist))) for about two years for life advice back when I was a bluepilled, DYEL faggot. This was about two years ago, is it necessary for me to write this info down or should I just let it slide?

You've got a few potential outs.

Have you ever been attended, treated or observed by any doctor or psychiatrist

You said you saw a psychologist. All psychiatrists are doctors, by definition: psychiatry is a specialty for people with an M.D. or D.O. degree. Did your psychologist have only a Master's degree? Then he wasn't a doctor. Did he have a Psy.D.? Debatable as to whether he's a doctor. It depends on whether doctor is defined in the NJ statute in question. It would be worth referring to the law itself.

or at any hospital or mental institution

Did your counseling take place as a regular office or medical practice? If so, that's not a hospital or mental institution, so it wouldn't count.

on an inpatient or outpatient basis for any mental or psychiatric condition?

To your knowledge, were you ever actually diagnosed with a mental or psychiatric condition? If not, it was just "advice" as you say.

So, if I understand the question correctly, you have to have been treated:

by a doctor or psychiatrist OR in a hospital or mental institution

AND

for a mental or psychiatric condition.

If you were treated by a psychologist with an M.A. in his office in an office park and he never said "I'm diagnosing you with Antisocial Personality Disorder" or whatever, then there's no problem. Even if you talked in general terms about being "depressed" or "anxious," for example, that's still different than actually being diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder or Generalized Anxiety Disorder or whatever.

Granted, New Jewsey is cucked, but most of those laws are intended to apply to severe mental illness like schizophrenia, anyway. Psychotic disorders and the like.

Psychologist or Psychiatrist

Not sure, on the bill it states I was charged for Psychotherapy

Did he have a PhD?

I never even bothered to ask him at the time tbh. Brb i'm going to look up that NJ statute

Hospital or institution

Nope, it was a (((((((((marital and relationship counseling advice center))))))))) in an office setting

Inpatient or outpatient

Nope, just advice, and yeah I would use terms like "depressed / anxious" but I was never officially diagnosed with anything. I'll take the risk and let this info slide. Thanks you anon.
