I've been receiving treatment for depression since I was a teenager (now pushing 30). I'm currently applying for an RN license by endorsement in Washington state, and I came up against the following question: The way the question is worded makes it sound like it comes down to a judgment call. I honestly don't feel that my depression seriously impairs my ability to practice nursing—after all, I was able to get through nursing school and do some work in my home state. However, I don't want to be penalized if, for some reason, they decide I'm failing to disclose pertinent information or was dishonest on my application. I did search through the archives, and there seems to be no clear consensus. Some are saying not to disclose because it could be used against you, and others are saying that you should disclose, because if you don't, it might be used against you! I honestly have no idea what to do. Anyone else go through this? What did you do and how did it turn out?
