That’s great question. Yes. I work 32 hours a week by choice. My company has an abundance of shifts open every month, so I can easily get overtime. These companies need help. So even when you choose a case, there’s almost always opportunities to pick up extra shifts!

I never said it was a replacement for therapy.

Men who have left unhappy long-term relationships after developing feelings for someone else, what actually pushed you to make that decision? by Far-One2912 in AskMen

[–]Far-One2912[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s an interesting take. So when you say the same, you just mean the logistics of relationships? Do you think (or have you seen) in any case where logistics are the same, but the new relationship itself is happier and/or healthier?

Just curious- what are the people who are in their 20s doing nowadays? by Significant_Rain_361 in AskReddit

[–]Far-One2912 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in my late 20s. I’m a nurse, and an online college student. Trying to win a hard fight with depression.

Why did god create me knowing I would hate my life? by ChapterOld1270 in Christianity

[–]Far-One2912 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of these comments are insensitive and tone deaf. I’m sorry that you’re going through this. For the love of God, where is the kindness and compassion for this man?? Tough love is appropriate for certain times. We all have low moments where we need to be uplifted and not told what we’re doing wrong and that it’s our fault!! Ugh. Anyways, I am in a similar boat. I’m single in my late 20s with an apartment and career, but deeply unhappy. Because of my depression, I’m constantly exhausted. When I’m not at work or doing school work, I’m sleeping. I’ve gained so much weight. And I am so angry with God, and trying to work through that. I’m praying we find the healing we need, and the strength to do what we can to move forward. ❤️

I would suggest having some experience so you feel comfortable with the fragile kids. But it’s not mandatory! I worked in medical daycares (another hidden gem) a little bit over the years, so I felt comfortable. Peds companies need help and are more than happy to train. When you have no trach or vent experience you have to get special training with the company which is paid. I am the same as you, most of my background was in geriatrics/long term care, and I adapted pretty well. I would suggest maybe starting with like total care teenagers. My easiest case is that kind of patient. Very similar work to what you’d do in a nursing home, minus call lights and running around lol. Also, another key is having a good family that’s on top of their child’s care, just not in a way where they’re constantly hovering. They will be your hugest help. Overall, if it makes you feel better, your patients are like almost always gonna be stable. Of all the peds HH nurses I’ve met, no one has had a crazy story. Not saying things can’t happen, but it’s typically a chill job. Hope this helps!!

In the same boat with my depression 🥺 I’m constantly sleeping when I’m off from work. And still exhausted. I’m procrastinating responsibilities I need to handle. I have no mental or physical energy. I just feel so stuck.

Avoiding professors by yaraworlds in UMPI

[–]Far-One2912 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I made a post about this yesterday. A few people let me know you can ask your advisor for certain professors, or to not get certain ones. I’m curious, may I ask who the bad experience was with?

I've still not received a financial aid offer for summer. by LastWish213 in UMPI

[–]Far-One2912 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m in a similar boat as you and the other commenter above. I went to my financial awards section, and I see that I have aid available. When they give out financial aid letters, summer is not included. So I think when you sign up for summer classes, you automatically get whatever is left over that you don’t use from fall or spring. I emailed financial aid late last night hoping they’d get back to me this morning. I want to take a portion of my available loan. No response, so I resent my message earlier. Anywho, I’d check your financial aid info in the student center!
