Hello, I am just browsing getting some info on adoption and such.
However, I have had a history of depression, been on medications and such but now I am doing really good. I have an emotion dog that has kept me from even needing to be on medicine, went to counseling last year. Haven't been depressed anymore. I am looking to adopt in the next two years or so but is adoption even an option for me and my spouse due to my past depression? please give me as much info as possible. We are worried about that.
My husband and I have had our kiddos for three weeks now. I was slightly worried about the same thing because I am on medication for depression/anxiety and I have attended counseling in the past. However, that did not hinder us whatsoever in becoming adoptive parents!

You don't mention if you're fost/adopting or just straight adopting. To foster/adopt in NY, I had to have a doctor sign off.
