Hi everyone. Next Thursday is my pinning ceremony!!!! I've finally done it. I've graduated from a practical nursing program. Herein lies the problem. I printed off the NCLEX-PN application to send to boards and one of the questions is to check yes or no if you have been diagnosed with a mental illness, ie, Depression, Bipolar Disorder, and various others. I need to check yes. I live in Ohio. Has anyone ever had to check yes? Or did you check no....knowing you shouldn't have? Will my doctor have to sign something.... will I get denied after all I've done? HELP!!!!!! By the way I have been under the care of a doctor and on controlled medication for some time now and my doc has always known I've been in nursing school and would give me his seal of approval as far as safe practice goes.... Am I the only nurse/nurse-to-be out there that has ever had issues?
