Goodbye social life.

Hello fellow nursing students,

I just wanted to see if any of you are feeling a bit depressed because you no longer seem to have a social life

after nursing school started. It's really affecting me. I wished I had more time for my boyfriend of 3 years. :heartbeat

Am I the only one feeling like this? I would neverrrrrr want to quit nursing school for time with him of course, but I just would like to know maybe how some of you deal with this.

Don't worry honey...your social life may suck now, (mine did too in nursing school) but when you graduate you'll be working 3 days a week and wondering what to do with so much free time!!!

Being in nursing school is just giving you practice for when you're married, working and have kids. You'll have no social life then either. :)

I'm so glad my boyfriend is so understanding and supportive. It makes it so much easier to get stuff done. And when he's home and being distracting (and he really doesn't mean to)? I just go to Starbucks.

I make time to see my sister weekly for dinner or baking/cooking sessions as well.

My best friend is in school herself so we try to get together when our time allows but we speak all the time.

Beyond that? Facebook and text messages!
