very depressed

RobinMRn · Nov 9, 2011

I know how you feel. 45 days ago I failed too. I was sad, depressed and upset too. Give yourself a few days to pick up the pieces and then wipe your slate clean. I re-took mine yesterday and I passed. I really recommend the hurst review! It really made everything click for me. Marlene hurst is wonderful and so funny that it makes studying easy. If you do it online you can watch the videos over and over. So much of what she said showed up on my test. I also recommend the Lacharity prioritization and delegation book, its great practice at those types of questions!

Dont be too hard on yourself though, you ARE smart! You graduated nursing school and that is tough!! It is just a test and will not determine what kind of nurse you will be. You CAN do this. I know it is easy for me to say now but I truly believe that it was a blessing for me to fail the first time, God was telling me to slow down, and re-evaluate. I feel so much more confident after taking the hurst review and I think it will make me a better nurse.

Best of luck to you!!

Hey, i took my nclex and failed the first time. Now i am getting ready to take it again, i've been studying my brains out to the point i get frequent headaches , smh. i've been praying and just trying to stay positive but for the past couple of days i've just been feeling very blue . Alot is relying on this exam.

I know how your feeling,trust me.its okey to be depress for the meantime and after that pick up yourself and study again,never give up! :) God has a reason for everything and in Gods time all of us are going to pass this test.i recently pass my pn and now back to studying my rn again. :nurse:
