Going nuts

[chanafrederick]

So, I am in my senior year of nursing school and I just can't seem to finish. It all started off well, first semester of clinicals was a pain, but not bad. Second semester was alright. Then I had some issues with family and had a nervous breakdown. Sure, I have mental issues, but never this out of control. Now I have had to go part time because I can't handle the stress. I went from taking over the recommended amount and passing with A's and B's, to dropping classes left and right and barely making it.

I was scheduled to graduate in May 2011...all the people I went in with are working as nurses now and it just bugs me that I am still here. Now I am having to push my graduation date again because I was in the hospital for about 2 weeks and missed too much school. I am sick of school and nothing depresses me more than feeling like I can't do it. On the floor, I feel that I am a good nurse and can handle that, but the school is killing me. I'm tired of busy work, the put downs and stress.

How can I take care of myself when no one will help me? How am I supposed to graduate when I can't stay sane enough to finish?

Well, that's my rant for now.
