Working as an RN I was never discrimated. I worked with many RN's that had lost licenses and recovered them through employee assistant programs. The Granddaughter of a neighbor during her first year of nursing was diagnosed with severe depression the hospital sent her a pdoc. She was put on meds. Due to high stress levels in hospitals she decided to accept employment in an MD's Pediatric practice and has full insurance. So discrimation isn't Always a problem. Her health insurance covers her meds. Many of the RN's I worked with were hospitalized for bipolar, drug abuse, And later after paid 6 month leave or less depending on the level of functioning began again to work in their former jobs. So I don't see this personally. At one time during nursing had a six month leave of absense during adjustment of first ad paxil and xanax. No problem returning. I was a charge nurse and resumed my position. This is me. Phillipa
