I was was never suicidal; but did and still do battle depression. I thought this article on the oral cancer foundation web-site was interesting!!

    Maybe Skiffin will help! Technologically Challenged. Not suicidal, but I think depression migh be some of my fatigue issue. I will try to get to the article.

    That was sad....
    the rise of suicide as an option, I mean.

    I started antidepressants within the first two weeks of diagnosis...having never taken them before in my life, I wasn't sure I needed them, or was just going thru a normal part of the process of finding out I had HNC. I'm glad I did, tho....I think I'm doing better because of them.
