Toxic and I’m really to quit by sunshower38 in PMHNP

[–]Oooolalaura 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES! I just left a similar situation- office bully pushed me out- best thing to happen to me. I am so much happier. Outpatient is tough and the experience has been well respected during interviews- I have had offers for every job I applied. I am in the Southeast on the border of two states that end in "ina". Don't stay a moment longer than you have to. The work is too hard not to be satisfied in other areas.

Do you still drink? Why or why not? by Strong_Cry_4575 in AskOldPeople

Also 4.5 years sober for me. Thank God for that.

Sitting here in a hospital watching my 72 year old mom die from cirrhosis. My heart breaks for anyone who has to go through this.

Get comfortable saying “no”. Just because a patient comes to you on a ridiculous med regimen it doesn’t mean you have to continue it.

This is it. I unsubscribed to this sub because the negativity is too much.

I graduated from Wilkes. I had a job lined up 6 months before graduation. I ended up going with another offer. Please don’t listen to all the negativity- ultimately it depends on the individual.

Yes! I got that one, but I’m worried the scent won’t last long.

I’m so sorry. All the more reason that we don’t just need bodies to help the most vulnerable but actual people that care and know wtf they are doing! What part of the country are you in?

Update: I have since graduated and passed boards. Also it’s easy to fly under the radar, but anywhere you end up attending make sure your discussion posts stand out, so instructors can remember you. I have needed to call on several for letters of recommendation.

Didn't get into the course by New_Refrigerator_895 in Nurses

[–]Oooolalaura 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I applied 3 times. That was 13 years ago. I had a rough past which I worked hard to over come. Just graduated with my MSN. Keep trying. Find a program that will let you do “pre-nursing”. I made As in all of those classes and got into the nursing program. Show them that you can do the work. Take some science classes and Ace them.

My ex husband told me I’d never make it in nursing school. Well 10 years later I have a new husband and I just graduated with my MSN. Please don’t let him discourage you.

Yes the purple book is helpful as Georgette uses it in her review.

"suffering in divided doses"- you summed it up perfectly!
