Cross entered sickbay on cloud nine for Joe did make it clear he was willing to go on with their relationship. On entering her office the female doctor sat down and started working on the roaster . Though the ship had arrived at their destination, for now at least everything seem to be in order yet she knew that any stability would change by an authoritative command or instruction.

Cross CMO.

As Cross sat at her desk, the door chime sounded. Waiting at the other side was Lieutenant McDuff waiting to follow up about what he had mentioned on the space station.

‘’Enter’’ Cross said looking up to see the COS ‘’Lt Cameron what brings you to my humble office ,please take a seat ‘’ she gestured towards a vacant chair .The female doctor seemed to be in good spirits …at least for now.

Cross CMO.

Cameron was relieved Cross seemed to be in a good mood. He wasn’t overly fond of prolonged visits to see the Doctor so this would be made easier if the CMO was happy.
“Thank you” Cameron said as he sat down.
“I wanted to come and see you about what I mentioned on the Space Station. I haven’t been feeling quite myself just lately and not sure why.” He explained.

Cross nodded he had her full attentiveness and concentration ‘’ What symptoms are you having and when did your ailment start ?’’ the female doctor asked while also focusing on his outward appearance .

Cross CMO.

“Well…” He began slowly. “Just this last sort of month or so I’ve been feeling very…off.” He said, still trying to find the words that best fit his feelings. “I haven’t felt motivated in my work, I’m finding it very difficult to concentrate on anything for a long period of time, and I find myself feeling generally lethargic.”
He knew his description was vague at best, but it was the best way he could summarize it at this time.

‘’Before I do a quick scan I would need to know if you’re on any medication ,vitamins or any herbal remedies? ‘’ Cross asked ‘’I’ll also need to take some blood samples ‘’.
When she was done the female doctor turned to face Cameron ‘’What about alcohol consumption ?’‘.

OOC: Anything? and does the scan pick something ? Have you decreased your food intake?.

Cross CMO.

As the Doctor ran her scans and checks, she would find nothing major wrong. Just the symptoms of mild fatigue.

“Well…” he pondered. “Now that I think about. I have been drinking a lil’ more than normal. But not a great deal more, but then I have been feeling pretty stressed with work more lately. I haven’t really been sleeping that great either, honestly.”

Cross did not interrupt she simple listened ‘’First I want to say you have done the proper and sensible thing by coming to sickbay instead of ignoring your symptoms until they got worse ,you need to find the root of what is making you depressed .I shall give you medication that shall increase dopamine and serotonin ‘’ the female doctor stopped and smiled ‘’ We tend to call them the happy pills ‘’ then on a more serious note Cross wen on ‘’ It will take some time about two to three weeks before you’ll start to feel better .Try to stick to a routine before sleeping yoga and breathing exercise help and the last thing to do is stop drinking ,alcohol feels like giving you a boost for awhile but most cause depression…be careful cause without realizing it would became an addiction which in turn cause more problems not to mention what it does to the liver ‘’.

A nurse came with the blood results and handed them to her ‘’ The alcohol level is a bit elevated ,so please Cameron do be careful ‘’ Cross stopped and looked at McDuff with some concern ‘’Lt,how came you’re feeling stressed with work ? We have just left the station and are on our way to another mission.It might be the depression that is causing you to feel stressed out’‘.

The CMO gave him the medication ‘’Two pills in the morning and another two before you go to sleep I’ll see you in five days from now and do talk with Joe ,he is competent and skilled as a counselor which he gained through experience .I’m sure he’ll be more then willing to help .’‘
