I am currently an FNP student and have been having second thoughts lately about finishing school. I only have 1 year left and I know I am so close, however my issue is not whether I feel like I am able to complete the work or not. I am having reservations about the role change. It is a big step and a big role change, and whether I am subconsciously having self-doubt or just the unknown of how life will be, I am seriously considering not finishing and just continuing to work as a bachelors prepared nurse. I currently work at an infectious disease office and LOVE my job. When I finish school I will not be able to stay there and will have to move on. This too has me feeling sad about all of it. I want to finish and not "give up" because I want to be a good role model for my children. Ugh, I am so confused. Are there any FNP's that had the same feelings? Any advise or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
