Guys I just need someone to talk to. I don't know what I would do if I didn't have the hope and encouragment from reading all the treads here. I get off orientation in 1 week after jumping into the "joy" of ER Nursing right after I graduated in May. I love my job, I just feel SO overwhelmed! There is SO much to learn, it's like I can't think quick enough. Some nurses are able to pick up on things I hadn't even began to think about. I wonder when I'll be like that or when I can impress someone with my smarts? I feel horrible, I had been severely depressed but this past week I moved to night shift since it's what I'll be working and I LOVE IT. Yea it's busy but it's much more laid back. I really like night shift and didn't think I would. Point is, I know that I'll have people to ask questions if I need it, but I'm torn up not feeling competent enough!~
