Fact is, when a decision like this is made solely based on paper-evidence and without proper psychiatric or medical evaluation of the applicant, we foster an environment of silence. She is 200% correct in doing what she does. Shine a big bright light on it, let the nocturnal critters squirrel away and discuss the issue. You may not win against the bureaucrats, but you at least didn’t take it, laying down.
We have all met and flown with pilots with severe psychiatric disturbances and issues, depression and even hidden suicidal tendencies. Problem is, you can walk around in broad daylight with a gun in your mouth and be perfectly fine to fly a fully loaded A380 from A-B - but god help you, if you speak up or seek help.
The real problems start, when one reaches out for help and treatment. Take the wrong medication and watch your entire career go down the toilet.
I wish her luck on this path. Common sense has long been run over by a garbage truck in many aeromedical branches.
