My mom just finished radiation a month ago. She has had bouts of depression during treatment & currently. She was just prescribed an anti-depressant, paxil, and we are hoping this will make a difference. Although she is doing so much better than she was while in treatment, she is frustrated that she isn't "back to normal". I think she is starting to realize that she most likely will never have the same energy level that she used to have. She has to come to terms with so many things and I believe the anti-depressant will be a big help in overcoming alot of these issues.
