I've been a nurse for 2 years now and my second year has been much worse than the first. I find myself not wanting to go to work because I know I'm going to make some stupid mistake. I feel like I have been making a lot of mistakes recently and I go home feeling guilty after many of my shifts. It makes me wonder if my first year I was too stupid to see all the mistakes I was making or if there's something wrong with me? I'm ready to quit nursing and do something else before I really screw up something major and hurt someone. I thought I would start feeling more comfortable and more like a nurse at this point in my career. I actually feel worse because anytime I do something stupid I think I should know better. Has anyone else had feelings similar to this after atleast 2 year in nursing? Will I ever be a real nurse? I hate feeling the anxiety and guilt and like I am incompetent.
