Freaking out - may have to withdraw

I am so upset right now. This is my second to last semester for my ADRN and I may have to withdraw in order to be sure I can come back. I have a b+ average in lecture, and excelled through my 10 week measure clinical, but these last 5 weeks are psych, and KILLING me. My final care plan completely destroyed me. I worked on it foe nearly 28 hours, and it was the only psych care plan (besides our self care plan, but I don't even want to get into that!).

It was due by 9am and I didn't finish and hand it in until noon. If my instructor wishes, she can mark me not passing on "functioning within the role of a student nurse" and on our last rotation of the semester we need to have all objectives passing. If I fail clinical, I can't even apply to return, but if I withdraw, I can reapply next fall.

I am beside myself, especially since it was clearly just a stupid failure of time estimation and planning. I completely take responsibility for my mistake, I'm just really sad. :(.

Have emailed the prof to ask for a meeting to discuss if there is anything I can do to remedy the situation, but my gut says she'll tell me shes not going to pass me. :(

    Why did it take so long to do the care plan? This is my first semester of nursing school and my school no longer do care plans. We do concept maps.

    Very VERY involved functional health pattern, 18 nursing diagnosis, and writing a patho physiology for anxiety disorders (including a review of all brain structures, hormones and neurotransmitters involved)..

    Really challenging. And I made the mistake of underestimating it and not giving myself enough time. :(

    Wow! 18 nursing diagnoses? That's insane. For our concept maps the most that we will have to do is 5. Sorry to hear that. I hope everything works out ok.

    I can't imagine what you're going through and I'm really sorry this happened. If it were me, I'd DEFINITELY talk to your instructor and see what she says before you withdrawal. Even though this is a very serious matter, we always tend to jump on the worst scenario possible. Don't get your hopes up that everything is going to be ok, but don't think that its over just yet. You have no clue what will come out of her mouth. Go in there and be completely honest and explain yourself. Atleast you can say that you gave it your best try. I wish you the very best of luck. :)
