If you have severe panic attack disorder and major depression, is there a possibility that you will not pass a lie detector test even if you did not commit the crime? When I am asked if I did thid actually told that I did, I get sweaty and have chest pains, more because the accusers dony believe me not from the question. Although I have never been psychotic or had black outs I sometimes worry that I did do it and don't remember, but my sister was with me and she said I did not that I don't show signs of being that crazy, they don't care that she said I did not do it. I did not think that way or have panic attacks till one of the investagers suggested that I did not remember cause I am mentally ill. I believe myself but now I have this tiny doubt that causes me to panic, I feel so sick about this I wish it was over, I think I am to weak for this. I told them I would not take the test because I took one when I was a kid my step dad molested me, the problem is we both passed and I have great resentment about that, and when I see myself hooked up I really think I would severely panic as it would put me back to a tramitic time in my life.

Why are you being asked to take a lie detector test in the first place?

They do not use the "lie detector" for criminal issues in the US.
They are not accepted in criminal court.

You can request one to attempt to clear yourself if you want to.
