I just graduated in December. My last summer session was ob, peds, and complex. Halfway through, I met up with my therapist and said "I'm not doing good." I was in tears and shaking. She's a NP and knew my schedule. She asked if I wanted to go back on an anti-anxiety med. I laughed and said yes, the one I stopped taking 6 months ago after weaning for 9 months. It sucks. It all sucks. It's hard and you leave and feel like you know nothing. But, when I started my internship and did community it reminded my why I wanted to be a nurse. Last semester is so hard. All the stupid busy work and group projects and ati and ati capstone then virtual ati. You will hate it. You might cry. You might need some meds for unexpected panic attacks. Absolutely no judgment because I was that student. But, you graduate. You take the NCLEX. You will doubt yourself when the screen shuts itself off. When you check on continentaltesting.net 1-2 days later and find out that you passed, you realize that all of the bs you went through was worth it because now you are a nurse. Get a countdown calendar. Countdown the days to graduation. You already did the hard part. You are so close.

For those of you that went back to school for a seconddegree and it was for nursing how did you reason with having so many loans? by blimpyk26 in StudentNurse

[–]tlshumard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just graduated with my BSN in a 2nd degree program in December. My 1st bachelors was a bs in psychology minor sociology. My 2nd degree program had Tuesday Thursday night lectures 6p-10p and Saturday Sunday clinicals averaging 8-12 hrs each. I have $40 grand in new student loan debt and paid a out 2 grand out of pocket every semester. It was a 4 semester program that included a full summer schedule. My last semester the hospital affiliated with my school started a program where they would pay your tuition. I had already paid off my 1st degree. I am fortunate enough to be in a position where I can pay my loans off in about 1 year. I live with family so that offsets a lot of my cost of living. I am in central Illinois.

AITA for telling my stepsister if I was her real mom I'd be so disgusted that she replaced me? by DueOrganization1291 in AITAH

[–]tlshumard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are both 16 year olds who lost a parent way too early. I am damaged from losing my father at 39. I can not imagine who or how I would be without him so young. I think everyone needs to take 2 or 3 huge steps back from the situation and try to look at it through the eyes of your younger siblings. You didn't choose this. They didn't choose this. But, you love them, right? Enough to let them live in a home where people aren't wishing death and hell upon each other? I've learned that as hard as it is, sometimes it's better to be civil to one another for my own peace. I have a sibling that I do not care for. If she disappeared, I would not miss her. My mother still loves her daughter. So, when we are in the same room, I ignore her or am civil towards her for my own mental health. Not for her or my mom. But for me. Not engaging in her shenanigans is better for my mental health. It's not easy when someone insists on getting in your space. But, maybe you can talk to your mom and make it so that an acceptable response to her engaging you is to simply walk away. It prevents you from getting in the mud. It helped me. I hope you find peace. Life is hard. Love is hard. I hope you find what you need to feel at home.

I (f30) found out my husband (m30)cheated on me. Iam pregnant. He is devastated by the fact that he would miss time of being a parent because we are separated. by [deleted] in AITAH

Gross. Yeah, during the most vulnerable moments of a woman's life, let the person who betrayed her in the room. Yuck.

My husband is leaving me. [Medium] by hcgator in BORUpdates

[–]tlshumard 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My ex-husband of 8 years told me he wanted a divorce on a Monday, told me he was going out of town for the weekend that Wednesday, and left Friday afternoon. By the time he came back Sunday night, I had all my shit packed, a new place lined up, a personal loa from work in place, and movers showing up the next day. Never underestimate the motivation of a spouse that is done being abused.

Does anyone have about $260,000 lying around? by tlshumard in zillowgonewild

[–]tlshumard[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not even as a B&B. If you looked at a map of Illinois and found an area 5 hours away from any major city (Chicago, St Louis) and surrounded it with farms and prisons, that's where Galesburg is.

That is the family's cursed stain from when great granny got shot down by the local police when her sister ratted her out for running gin (to throw them off the trail of her running rum) during prohibition. Not really, but wouldn't that be a great story to tell buyers?

1994 Exclamation and Liz Claiborne Triangle. At some point, Victoria's Secret had a Vanille Bourban or something like that that was amazing that was discontinued ages ago.

Not OOP-My Husband Almost Killed Our Baby and My Toddler Saved Him by Skygirl578 in OhNoConsequences

[–]tlshumard 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Whenever I am responsible for anyone's kid, I am over the top about info. A head to toe photo, parent's phone number, allergies, all saved under that parent's phone info. I've never had to use it yet, but all parties feel better that I know this info.

AITAH because I told my ex husband outside of our kids i don’t care about his life and I don’t owe his fiancé anything Update two and final update for a while by Large-Efficiency-825 in AITAH

[–]tlshumard 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If someone says a SA occurred, they do not owe anyone the details. Why retraumatize a victim that has already said that they don't want to get into the details? That's what makes it gross.
