Can I still join the Coast Guard with a history of anxiety disorder?

I would like to join the United States Coast Guard. I'm a 25 year old male in good physical condition, very motivated but, I also have an anxiety disorder I was hospatlized when I was 16, also had a 3 day evaluation when I was 20. In recent years it has gotten much better and easy to manage. Other than that I'm great. I've thought about enlisting many times but , always thought I would be turned away if they found out in a backgrould check or something.

    Probably not any of the military branches, because they don't want anyone who can go wacko at any time.
