Are there any psych nurses out there?

I am a student nurse at a community college. I will graduate in Dec. We are currently doing our psych rotation at the state mental hospital, and I absolutely *love* it. The other students can't wait to leave, but I can not wait to get there.

I would love for any psych nurses out there to tell me more about their jobs. What are the pros/cons? Would you have any advice for a nursing student interested in pursuing a career in psych nursing?

Thank you so very much,
