Have been wanting to apply for a cruise ship job for a few years but..

It says u cant apply is you have a psychiatric illness?
I's anxiety one?

I would just apply.

You don't have anything to loose. If you don't get the job you'll be in the same place now.

If you get the job, let them know you have an illness and show evidence that it is under control and it won't interfere with any of your tasks. A letter from your doctor or therapist will help with this.

Thanks for the reply! :)
Im hoping its under control by the time im 21.
But im just worried if it isn't, because i want to start the application process now.

Apply! You have absolutely nothing to lose. If you get the job-fantastic. If not, you know that by working on your anxiety and getting it under control, you can only make your life better and better. And that means getting yourself mentally and physically fit for a dream job. Besides, you don't want to spend the rest of your life playing the what if/I wish game.  "What if I had applied for that cruise job?" "I wish that I had tried for the cruise job".  Go for it!!

It sounds like you really want this job.

You can get your illness under control if you put your mind to it.  Especially when you now have a goal in mind.

Thanks everyone, that really means alot! i've really been focused on working towards recovery , and lthese past few days feel like i have been getting worse, but today I had a tiny bit of a better day. It takes time i guess, and the harder i work the quicker I will get there. And your right! with a goal in mind I have something to work towards :)
