Medical Exam attempted Suicide in past

[ssgvc23]

Hi, i am in canada. in 2020 due to some personal issue. I attempted suicide and i was kept in hospital for 11 days the I was discharged. I did not consult doctor after that. I started work couple of months after and still continue working. Right now i dont have any depression. Now i got invitation for CEC. Will i get rejected for that. Should I consult a psychiatrist and get myself checked and take a letter that Iam okay and submit it to panel during medical exam. I dont know what to do?

You will need to declare your past mental health issues but what is important is that you were able to overcome your mental health issues and are able to work/study for many years at this point. What IRCC is concerned about is your longterm ability to support yourself financially and not place excessive demand on the health system.
