Maybe you could start in the Air Force. As long as the unit does not have any weapons at all. Prove yourself there. Then maybe try the Army, after several years.
We have too many situations requiring level headed thinking and do not have the time or inclination to deal with people who may decide to be impulsive, "headstrong", or "annoying" for no particular reason.

With that has been said as a prior AF guy I would not want him near an air plane either. All aircraft are multi-million dollar assets. Aircraft especially helos are millions of little pieces moving in tight formation waiting for one to get out of proper working order so that they can send the whole thing to the ground. Having been in several crashes and hard landings I would not want you around my plane, helo, packing parachutes, handling my pay or anything else that keeps me doing what I do, or what the other in this forum Operators do. The AF has issues putting some on that has had issues with Bi-polar, depression or other psyc issue in for that reason. However, once you have been off meds for two years or more you may then be able to get in.
What are your other options? Read a Message to Garcia. Go talk to recruiters not just on but for all of the branches, to get as much info as you can. And make it work for you. when you want to do something, do the research on what it take to do it, then go out and get it don't! If you in the process find that you are unable for what ever reason to thats OK but then go find something else that interests you and do the same thing all over again, repeat this process until you find the overlap of your interest and ability (to include the requirement outside of your control), odds are that may be something that you have been called to do.
Good luck
