hi.i am ashamed to tell my nursing school misadventures but right now,i just need advice really bad.i am very depressed and confused right now.i first started nursing at a bsn school but failed after taking fundamentals.so i transferred to an associate's rn school,got in.When i was almost in my last semester,i failed 2x and got dismissed from the program.i was very depressed.i let my whole family down,even my grandparents from overseas were even supposed to come to my graduation this year .I am either laughed at by people or yelled at by parents.Instead of encouraging me not to give up,my husband blames me everyday saying im too dumb i failed(it hurts me and makes me cry)Believe it or not,i have been fighting to graduate nursing school for the 7th year now.Nursing is really what my heart wants.I want to be a nurse so I decided I will take one step back from being an RN,which is being an LPN.If being an RN is too overwhelming for me,maybe I can handle less duties being an LPN.When I feel comfortable,then I plan to do an LPN to RN.
Right now,I am starting LPN school,this is my 3rd and last try in nursing school(hopefully I will make it with God's help). 1) Has anybody ever failed RN school and successfully became an LPN later? 2) Also,with my situation being out of RN school and going LPN school,am I still eligible to work as a nurse tech?I already completed Med Surg from RN school.I am also still going to attend a nursing school even if it is just LPN school.I really need a job to earn money for my family.Without it,we will up in the streets because my husband is low income also.I cannot work as CNA because my LPN school is already gonna be 5 days/week and if I work on saturday as aide,that would be too much already for my body to handle.Im not even sure if I will pass LPN school if I work because that would leave me with only 1 day left( Sunday) to study.If it wasn't for my family's financial needs during this tough economy,I would have given up because I am already tired of failing.I want to stand up from this failure but everytime I try to motivate myself to never give up,people always try to bring me down.Im either laughed at by friends or yelled at by family.I dont want to quit nursing.I am a very nice person and I really care about my patiets.Can somebody please give me an advice what to do?
