Help me, I hate Nursing!!! - Page 2

One nurse I met burned out. Took a month off. Decided to go back to school for a master. Now she is teaching the next generation of nurses and she is happy.

I agree with the posts. You need to put yourself first. burnout is serious. impossible to function when your in a burnout state.

You may need meds or you may need a little counselling, your life isn't long enough to suffer needlessly.

Stress/depression whatever you label it, is difficult to pull out of alone. Good for you to take a break and realign yourself.

Best wishes

I find I need a total job change at least every 10 years -- perhaps you do, too. One of the great things about nursing is that many different doors are open to you.

Exploring a new area is scary but it's also stimulating and a lot of fun.

Good luck, and I hope your time off helps!
