anxiety about starting LPN school

[rma2lpn]

Hi I'm just starting LPN school in Chicago and I am having so much anxiety!!! It feels like everything bad keeps happening at once. i'm a single mother of three and i have been working as a medical assistant for seven years. I've also worked on the side as a CNA for six years. So my goal is RN but thought that pacing myself may be better financally. Now that i've started i changed my position at work to working the registry as a CNA to adjust to my school schedule and because the cenus is low i've been getting canceled!!! Now i'm panicking on how i'm going to pay my bills, my kids need things, etc. and i sometimes find myself second guessing should i really be doing this school thing now? I've talked to others who have finished the program and they say they stuggled as well but my goodness. With the stresses of everyday life and trying to go to school how does one keep a balance. I've been praying for God to show some favor on my situation............... Is anyone else experiencing hardships while in or starting school?????

So inspiring, I am a mother of one, I am currently working full-time, school part-time, but I definately plan to quit my job this spring to pursue my practical nursing license. I do have some financial support, but not much. I am so anxious to get started doing something meaningful. I'm scared to death of whats to come, but so thrilled about the possible outcomes.
