Hi
I am a long time lurker on SDN as the name indicates. I will be starting MS in a little over a week and I m scared because I am on an SSRI for anxiety and tension headaches. it is prescribed but I dont want my school to know given the stigma. I have talked to many family friend doctors, and a majority say dont disclose it before the drug test as it wont show up and a few say disclose it on the off chance of it showing up so that you are not lying to them. I dont want the stigma and more importantly I dont want to get kicked out for being on an antidepressant (even though I am not depressed) and being considered coincidentally not stable. Any advice would be great.
