I was wondering if this has ever happened to anyone...
It doesnt matter what has happened, but lately it was my husband. We were driving down the road and he said he was sick at his stomach, immediately my face turned pale, I started to sweat, I was wigging out LITERALLY.
I feel like such a freak. Everytime someone feels sick at their stomach like they are going to vomit, I FREAK OUT. It scares me (now I know you think I am crazy) It is so hard to explain.
I had giardia for over two years, it went undiagnosed by several doctors. I'm sure all of you know what that is. Well, now anything to do with the stomach, diarrhea, vomit, anything...I totally freak. I get nervous, I think oh my gosh, oh my gosh. STUPID, right?
How am I ever going to be a nurse? How am I ever going to be able to handle stuff like this? Maybe nursing is not for me.
I mean, I am a compassionate person, I really am. I really want to help sick people, but stomach issues I just cannot deal with.
I panic when people are hurt... not just the stomach thing. It's like oh my gosh, what do I do.
Help?
