Hello. I'm new here so please be patient for now. Ok, I am wanting to purchase a gun for protection here in Michigan BUT, years ago, I was hospitalized ( involuntarily ) as I had a nervous breakdown as I had just had a baby, my husband went to fix a washer and never came back ( Must have had to go to China to find parts! LOL! ) and to top it off, I found my mother deceased. I saw a good therapist and worked everything out. I have NEVER threatened to harm anyone and have never been convicted of any crime. My question is, will I be absolutely denied a purchase permit or is there a way to argue my case if I am?
