I'm 2 months out from my last radiation (Dec 20, 2006) and I've had doom and gloom thoughts. I wanted to do nothing and I've had outburst of anger which has affected my friendships and marriage. It's terrible and I hate being this way. I saw my Doc at U of M, Michigan and after asking me a few questions she said I'm suffering from depression. I was perscribed Zoloft. I've just begun taking it , I truly hope it will help me out of this. I need all my energy to keep myself going. Thanks for this board so I can just talk about whats going on.
