Sunfish,
My heart tears apart when I hear this happening, because we had a student years ago that went through a divorce and told the truth on his medical...and then couldn't fly for six more months, even though it happened a year or so before. He had been prescribed sedatives to get through the stressful time and it had a very adverse affect on his potential career.
My mother and brother both died a couple of years back and the estate was a mess and some of the stress affected me the same way.
I had three months off from flying blaming it more on logistical issues than state of mind.
I would suggest the same to be honest with you!
