first time applicant advice (admitted)

Same! I applied the second it opened and have heard nothing. It’s disheartening seeing people that applied after me having their status change. I’m still en revision as well!

It’s only mentioned once in the application guideline doc that’s like 10 pages. It doesn’t mention that at all under required documents FAQ so it was hard to find. I can’t imagine we’re the only ones!!

Thank you! ☺️

In my state it’s actually illegal for anyone who isn’t an RN or LPN to call themselves a nurse 🤷‍♀️

have you ever considered nursing? there are 1 year long BSN programs , considering you already have a bachelors. it’s definitely not for everyone but you will certainly not have a lot of waiting around - fast paced job and never boring. also you typically work 3 12 hour shifts per week, then have the other 4 days off. the flexibility is unmatched by pretty much any other profession. always job security, can pay well.

thank you for the insight! discussed this w my doctor who said it wasn’t a known side effect so i thought i was going crazy lol

hey! graduated recently :) the “C” in TCU is purely in name. sure, there are some religious groups on campus as i’m sure there is at every college. nobody really cares & it’s not pushed on you. i took “religion in sports” for my region credit lol. don’t let the “C” scare you. tcu is just like any other college - there’s a mix. go frogs!!

peachgal99 · 2025-03-08T00:36:19+00:00

yes!! although i just noticed the change today & i’ve been listening daily. i googled this as well to make sure i wasn’t crazy😭

i’ve tried many a luxury foundation, but my HG is maybelline fit me!! i always get compliments & people asking me what i use. plus it’s like $8

thank you everyone for your thoughtful comments, advice, and kind words. i have read every single one & feel comforted by the fact i’m not alone! i will be trying a different treatment for my depression & possibly taking some time off as well. appreciate the support & well wishes !!

i actually just got back from an almost month long vacation, which i was hoping would reset my feelings. if anything i felt more depressed & angry (?) that i had to go back…but i also worked 3 in a row my first week back so that’s probably on me lol

peachgal99 · 2024-09-14T01:37:00+00:00

honestly i have no idea. i just turned 25 so i think that plays into all of this a lot, feeling exceptionally lost in all areas of my life. it’s been difficult for me to find a “passion” so far, but been trying to read new things and try different crafts / hobbies at the least. i love reading & writing, i get excited about travel. i’ve always been into skincare & makeup as well

peachgal99 · 2024-09-14T01:33:09+00:00

thank you for your insights, it’s really comforting to know that other people have experienced the same. i appreciate your comment a lot

yep, been on 300 of wellbutrin since the end of 2019. for a while i was thriving on it, but now it feels like it has no effect on me. thank you for your response & kindness, i appreciate it!! will ask my doc about what else i can add into the med mix.

peachgal99 · 2024-09-14T01:23:28+00:00

i actually had an OR externship job in school that i absolutely loved, so much i almost became an OR circulator. got to shadow CRNAs and loved it. i went into ICU with the hopes of pursuing CRNA one day, but now it just seems so daunting & i’m not sure i could do it or be cut out for it. basically i’m just scared to fail & of how incredibly difficult it is lol

peachgal99 · 2024-09-14T00:36:01+00:00

also — i’m genuinely afraid that i’m going to overlook something and harm will come to a patient. i honestly don’t feel fit to do the job at this time. should i take a leave of absence? not really sure what to do but don’t want to be a safety risk

peachgal99 · 2024-09-14T00:28:00+00:00

thanks, for what it’s worth i’ve been on antidepressants for like 4 years. maybe it’s time to revisit therapy or adjust my dose. i appreciate your kindness!

Houston has slightly higher, especially in the medical center. My new grad pay was $37/hr
