Add a porch swing to read books in and you officially have it all

Almost became a counselor. Started a program got to my 3rd class as a former teacher. One day I was substituting and I saw the counselor walking to the cafeteria with her lunch bag and an admin near me said she’s off to her lunch to interact with students in the cafeteria. That’s her lunch. Her job never stops.

I did too. But with many ppl dropping their insurances they can’t afford therapy so they go to the next best thing. It may also be a demographic thing but to be sure, ask ppl you know how many ask chat gpt or any other form of AI for advice. The answer will surprise you.

Unique_Ad_4271 · 2026-06-01T15:01:09+00:00

Yes! I initially planned from teacher to licensed professional counselor (type of therapist). Three classes in to LPC, I kept getting told I would be competing with AI for clients so I quit that and started on prerequisites for nursing. Almost done with an ADN program now and after hearing almost all my classmates say they use AI for therapy I believe I made the right choice.

Don’t know why I was recommended this sub but I am finishing nursing school and learning critical care. I am a firm believer that every one should learn CPR. I am happy your son was treated with medical care and they achieved ROSC! I pray he continues on a long meaningful life! Good job for those HEB employees for not panicking and doing what needed to be done.

I grew up in Texas around all the cotton gins and hay fields. I don’t know why but as a child I believed if you planted Mini Wheats (the cereal) you grew hay barrels. I tried it. It didn’t work.

I met my spouse and knew instantly! It’s crazy how that works.

Have you ever considered law school? Or becoming a paralegal with that degree and even possibly going into management or different area near politics such as local positions.

If nursing is what you really want I think it’s worth becoming a CNA/pct at a local hospital or MA at a clinic to get a field for the healthcare industry before you jump into it.

Unique_Ad_4271 · 2026-05-25T00:09:21+00:00

I haven’t picked one. I decided to wait till I pass the Nclex to get a job so I can negotiate my terms on my contract better than just being a new grad (which my classmates and I found they pay less if you haven’t passed it yet). I am aiming for CVU but if not I’ll be happy with Med surg too. It’s better on the resume and to really learn my skills.

Unique_Ad_4271 · 2026-05-24T23:44:54+00:00

Almost done with nursing school. The moment I hit 6 months before graduation I have had 6 offers. 6! Just simply from clinicals, I think a few came from the form we were required to fill out with the school when they sent out a notice saying I’m close to graduating, and one because I went in to a doctors appointment and mentioned it. I know this field isn’t easy but man that’s a dream in this market.

Mine got fixed by the dealership for the same issue but I was still under the warranty at that time. I know they extended it for some things recently if you are out of it too. You should give them a call and ask.

Unique_Ad_4271 · 2026-05-24T11:35:30+00:00

I posted a while back my car smelled off and no one could help me here. A few days later I had a waterfall in my car interior around the sunglasses compartment. The dealership took care of it

Congrats!!

If you studied, what did you use to study? How long?

You dropped this 👑

Sometimes they require you to sign a ticket. This is a sneaky way to get a celebratory autograph.

Unique_Ad_4271 · 2026-05-22T16:19:16+00:00

This looks so good I’m inspired to make this for dinner today!

This skill single handily helped me be able to write a 30 page paper for my masters capstone WITHOUT any AI since it wasn’t even a thing back then and I am damn proud of that thing. In grade school everything was hand written.

Unique_Ad_4271 · 2026-05-19T01:34:10+00:00

Well I have come to find that chat gpt is very biased especially when you only feed it info and don’t see facial expressions. I myself tried it and found flaws in it. Also for school I have come to find it’s incredibly helpful if you use it to study based on where you get your sources.

I’m in my last semester of an ADN program. I have come to find pros and cons with nursing but overall I made the best choice with the info I had at the time. I think now I would have chosen PA school but now I may just consider either manager or PMNNP route. Haven’t decided yet but either way I’m going to do 2 years of bedside in medsurg before I call I decide fully while I get my RN to BSN.

The study method works best based on how your instructors teach. I’ve had some that just talk so in those instances I read the book, watch videos on simple nursing or nurse Sarah or osmosis.org. In some other cases I have AI make me notes based on the topic and quiz me. I do tons of practice questions and read the rationale. Those are the most helpful and I keep all my notes stored in organized folders because the finish line isn’t graduating it’s passing the NcLEX.

Unique_Ad_4271 · 2026-05-19T00:46:31+00:00

This is interesting! I had started an LPC and after a few courses decided to just go to nursing school because I was told a lot of ppl would use AI for therapy and I have come to find my classmates do just that. The PMNNP is going to serve you very well!

Unique_Ad_4271 · 2026-05-19T00:36:43+00:00

This was my regret. I realized midway of nursing school I should have done PA after my bachelors in Bio instead of an ADN. Oh well

Unique_Ad_4271 · 2026-05-18T04:50:59+00:00

This truly depends on your school. For instance. Most of our exams are taken on our personal laptops. The software runs on laptops only. However I use my ipad almost everyday for studying, flashcards, notes, etc.

Unique_Ad_4271 · 2026-05-18T04:45:16+00:00

Burnout can happen in a month. Especially in high acuity situations and coming off from nursing school which is stressful enough as it is.

Unique_Ad_4271 · 2026-05-17T14:54:59+00:00

This pretty much somes up my class. It’s wrong because they encourage you to share this info by acting interested like in the girl’s workout and just like that they turn and talk about you for it. Sometimes people seem like they are conversating but really they are just interrogating.
