What are my chances of being denied? I've just taken my non restricted course and will be sending in my paperwork here... But I have taken antidepressants in the past on and off from 2004-2014. Will that cause me to get denied? I haven't been on them for years and have had no issues with depression since then.

I am currently on an antidepressants and got approval just fine. I included a letter from my doctor with my application and there was no added wait time (only took 4.5 months, approved this summer)
