How hard is it to pass a background check when purchasing a firearm with a history of depression? What about a concealed weapon permit?
I just want a simple 1911, but ever since my early teens I've been to therapy, been prescribed antidepressants, and even got hospitalized for a few days when I had a break down, nothing insane, just empty suicidal threats cause I used to be an edgy shit.

If it happened when you were a minor, it's not going to come up. Not even involuntary commitment.

Sadly the hospital stay was when I was eighteen or nineteen, I can't really even remember. But I'm 22 now, am I doomed to never buy a firearm from a gun store or more importantly, get a concealed weapon permit? Cause I already know family members that would give me a hand gun of theirs.

Being given a handgun is a serious crime. Don't do that.

There are steps you can take to have your rights restored, if you're not batshit crazy.

Just take up water color or something,

If you aren't responsible enough to deal with your own problems without being hospitalized for being gay then you aren't responsible enough to own a gun. That being said maybe you weren't insane but were just dumb enough to trust others who thought it was a good idea. Either way enjoy your airsoft gun life.

I've had all of the above, plus an honorable discharge for "personality disorder". Oregon still gave me a CHL, and I buy guns on the regular.
Don't stress over it.

>history of depression?
forget buying a gun pal
find some other way to kill yourself
otherwise if your honest your mental hospitalizations will disqualify you from background check CCW if you're not honest it will still disqualify you
I had depression when I was younger in Oregon and prescribed antidepressants and have never had anything but speedy background checks

Move. Medical records like that don't follow you.
Kinda sounds like your going to shoot your self with the 1911 from the gun shops point of view
