Freaking Out

I start my last semester of an ADN program in 4 weeks. I alternate between excitement and extreme nervousness. I do not feel anywhere near ready to be an RN. Sometimes I can't even recall basic info and other times its ok. My school integrates pharm with each course and we recieved a list of 100 + meds that we need to know.

My husband doesn't get it, my family doesn't even call me anymore, and I have no clue what type of nursing I want, if I can even get a job. Oh yeah, the idea of needing to apply for jobs within 2 months or so scares me beyond belief. :bluecry1:

How do other students deal with these feelings? I know I'm not alone.

And I can't find an affordable EKG book

I feel like I am in your same boat. I am entering my final year and I feel like I hardly know anything. Sometimes I feel like the simplest things I should remember, I have to look up again to refresh my memory. I pray this is all normal and hope that I can't remember this abundance of information I have been thrown my way. Sometimes I just think I am a plain idiot for not being able to remember those simple things. Sometimes I can just think for a moment though and it will come back, but then I get mad at not being there at the top of my head! I know how you feel and I am sure there have to be others out there...I hope!

Thank you Daytonite, I wish I had a mentor like you. If I am half as resourceful as you are then I will eventually be ok.
