Hi Carlene,
No, please be sure you didn't leave me with that impression. I also take an anti-anxiety pill but I guess I just don't appreciate the way nurses take it upon themselves to recommmend anti depressants to a patient. I just feel that people with cancer are dealing with just some type of stress because of the unknown. And, they don't need added medications such as anti depressants to make them feel good. Anyway, hope you're having a happy Easter and it's always nice reading what you write on the discussion board.
