I can't assume anything else other than he read "Psycho Pharmaceuticals" before saying no and moving on to his next email which makes this frustrating. Clearance is well and maintained, I've even discussed it with with the security officer prior to DQ and they had no issues with the meds and clearance. I've been off the meds for over a month now with no side effects.

So my friend said that MANMED ch 15 would cover these kind of things but it's not usually a specific medicine but rather what is causing the medicine to be prescribed. There are some potential pretty nasty potential side effects but seeing as you aren't even on the med anymore my friend was pretty mystified. You need to find a trusty, knowledgeable NC and see if they can give you the references. Is the medical condition a permanent one?

Not permanent, it held me over until I made some lifestyle changes(diet) so I have no need for it ever again. Me and my CCC(Backed up a NCCM) combed MANMED CH 15 with a fine tooth comb and couldn't get anything even remotely related to come up. It's pretty much going to be generate a bunch of documents from medical, throw them in the package and if it's denied again let them explain it with proof, references, examples before NCCM puts on his fighting gloves.

like, the army came out a while ago saying soldiers aren't allowed to consume any hemp products, i.e. hemp seed drinks

wondering if the navy has a similar policy? cause i like these hemp seed drinks and they got hella omega 3 acids. also vape store nearby started to introduce hemp oil vapes instead of nicotine and that seems like a novel way to ween myself off nicotine, doesn't contain THC.

don't want to get busted up for something dumb like that if it's a possibility

Pretty sure around the time the Army was putting out its dumb policy, the Navy had some message about "Don't care about it, no THC". I'll do some digging.

Looks like nothing in the 5350.4. This hemp related site says we don't have an official policy.

http://hprc-online.org/dietary-supplements/opss/operation-supplement-safety-OPSS/opss-frequently-asked-questions-faqs-1/Hemp%20Products

Just make drat sure you won't pop, and if you do, submit the item for testing and pray. Or avoid the whole ordeal by not overpaying for some hemp shake and getting your omega-3s from a fish oil pill or something. I wouldn't trust the industry to make sure it only creates products out of hemp strains and not high THC strains.

Why smoke it too? Get some other nicotine free vape poo poo or something then go back to smoking a week later because the Navy sucks.
You and your hemp based hippy poo poo should go write a screenplay in a starbucks somewhere.

if you have to stop and ask 'does product x cause problems for any military branch' the answer is always going to be yes.

unfortunately that also includes booze if you get into any trouble related to it

Be careful with that, I've heard horror stories but never knew the guy(if they existed at all, and just aren't made up sea stories for wasting time) but even that would be enough to turn me off from trying. Just not worth it if it does pop because there is no defense in that case, not even the slickest sea lawyers could realistically fight a positive whiz quiz, and that is what makes the program so effective.
